 African Clawed Frog Eggs -Please Read/Help-

I’ve had two African Clawed Frogs for about 13 years or so. One is a normal and one is albino, I was under the assumption that they are both females and have been housed together since I got them. I got them through some sort of frog thing in the mail that my parents got me when I was about 5 years old. I cleaned their tank yesterday and when I looked in there tonight to feed them I noticed little tiny white egg looking things. Are they really eggs? If so how is this possible?

with african clawed frogs the female releases eggs outside of her body and the male fertilizes them afterward.
So what probably happened was when you took them out of the tank you may have squeezed the sides of one of the females (the way a male does when he wants to mate) making her drop her eggs out. So You probably have unfertilized eggs there but thats just my guess. Let me know if anything happens
