This morning at about 9:30 i wake up, do my rounds with my pets (a turtle, a fish, and the tadpole of course) when i come across the tadpole fish bowl. I saw something near his head. I was ammased by what it was!!!!! My little tadpole(mabey not little any more) has a tiny little limb jutting out where a tube!!!!! (iam guessing it is the gills) had been!!! WOW the crazy thing is he had what looked like a blister on his other side. I got very excited. later i went to an amuesment park, I get home at 8:00 pm. the first thing i did was run to the tadpole fish bowl and another surprise!!!!!!! Where that "little blister"was there was a leg even smaller than the first front leg!!!!!!

Get ready to move him. Now if the time to make sure that he has a little land area to get out on. A 10 gallon tank set up 50 land 50 water would be perfect!

Congrats on your new baby froggie!!!

Do you know what kind of frog he is? Please tell me, it sounds so cute!

HE is a bullfrog tadpole.... UPDATE- we just movedmy tadpole to a ten gallon tank, put three gallons of water... I'll get a pic of him and the tank soon... He is starting to use his front legs to sit in the water...

P.S Special Thanks to Ellasmommie for saving me $25(I was going to go to the vet to check out his tail, but she said not to worry about it)

Hey not a problem at all. You'll see as his tail absorbs that he'll start looking normal again. One of my kink-tailed babies actually had lopsided hind legs until the tail was completely gone. How he's big and string and ready for his new home.
