As the eggs are laid male frogs will cover it with foam. These foam nests are found in water puddles, tree branches, or buried underground. The nests prevent dehydration (drying out), predation and infection from bacteria and fungi. It also provides a healthy environment for the developing embryos. Sunlight will harden the nest's outer surface. After a few days the developing tadpoles break out and fall into the water where they will complete their development.
