Froglet

A froglet is a newly metamorphosed young frog — just off the water with four legs and a shrinking tail stub — and the most delicate stage to raise, needing tiny food and high humidity.

Froglets are fragile: they need very small feeders (like flightless fruit flies), high humidity, and easy access to land. Getting a batch of healthy froglets through this stage is the hard part of breeding.
