Tadpole's Day Nineteen - Discovered Something New For Them To Eat

Besides organic Spinach leaves cut into thin strips once every morning.
Sprouted bread on occasions.Guppy food Twice a day.

Yesterday I tried some pollen and flowers from a white crape myrtle.
No interest, but I think I will try the pollen again. There was some
curiosity but not an mediate frenzied gorging that they usually
demonstrate when introducing a poetential food source in to
their habitat.

Now, take some organic raw hemp hearts. My new introduction
today. While there were still bits of spinach floating around and
four to five hours since last feeding. As soon as I dropped just
a few bits of hemp hearts in the water, that characteristic hastened
swarming that stirs up the surface water and then the snatching
of individual bits for themselves was enough indication to warrent
some more hemp hearts added and another potential food source.

I will always check back in a few to see if the new introduction has
been eaten and of course to check on them hours later to make sure
they are still alive.

It's not everyday that tadpoles become captives and with good
intentions of witnessing their development into their next lives.
