Glad to hear there's finally some action going on! I have to admit, based
on the continued growth and no legs, I was really starting to wonder if
these might not also be bull tads that were just laid way later in the
season than the others.
I think at three-four inches they're still smaller than the bull tads that
were at the nursery (which really seemed shockingly big to me), and since
they'll be absorbing that tail length, I think that keeps them in the size
range for our native species. If not we may have a super-easy bullfrog
hunt next year. (my pond is about 2'x3'...)
