I know this is the snake forum, but this is where I normally post. My friend who is a school teacher had a student bring in a seemingly normal sub-adult bullfrog, with two extra upper arms on his left side. Since I am the "reptile guy" in my town, she wanted to know if I would keep him. Since I don't know much about amphibians I was wondering if this is a common condition, or really rare, as I personally have never heard of it. I would post a pic, but she isn't giving him to me until next week, as she is taking it back to her biolgy class. Any input would be most helpful
