Hi Ian, those pictured are probably nearer sub-adult than juvie - around 4 inches. When they were really small I fed them hatchling crickets and sweepings but managed to quickly wean them on to frozen bloodworm from a toothpick. When you have 20 handfeeding may be impractical, I only have 6. The growth rate in handfed animals will be greater (assuming you feed them lots!) so it might be worth trying it with the kean ones. You could always separate them out from the ones that don't take to handfeeding.

How big are yours Mark? (cm or inches) Mine are 2-2 1/2 inches and I feed them on pinheads and live blackworms.
Again, fantastic animals

Thanks Mark/Danny i put some blood worm in a container the little ones can get in then misted them (the blood worm) with water to keep them alive,loads gone the next day.I have also now seen a couple flick their tongues out and get some pin head crickets.Counting up ,if all my tadpoles morph i will end up with around 100, so feeding with a toothpick would be a little time consuming. I hope i can get them onto chopped earth worm eventually as its costing me quite a bit.
