 | During the Spring, my mum laid between one and one hundred eggs in a pond in nice calm water. The eggs became attached to pond plants and hatched between 6 and 21 days. A frog's eggs look like lumps of foam all clustered together. A toad's eggs on the other hand, are joined together in a long chain. |
 | After between 6 and 21 days, I hatched out of my egg, although in all it took me about three months to transform into a "froglet". A froglet is a baby frog that still has its little tail. This process is called "metamorphosis". Some tadpoles take longer, some take shorter. When I was a tadpole, I ate algae with my tiny teeth which helped me grate up my food. |
