Re: [GSAS-Member] Frogpole update...



Wow...I know when I divided out the tads I kept the two biggest to see if
they'd be different from the rest.  Those are farther along than any of my
others, and probably have back legs shorter than 1cm...no front legs at
all yet.

Very cool photo.  I was pretty much 100% positive the whole time that
these were going to be Chorus Frogs...but I've got to admit, that looks
more like a green frog (Rana clamitans) than a chorus frog to me (probably
not really a green, which are more common in the east, but I think they're
also introduced here).  I hope that's not the case as I love chorus frogs,
and really was looking forward to listening to them.

He doesn't appear to have fully developed his face shape yet, but it seems
funny to me that he would have legs stripes already and no face stripe if
he was a chorus frog...?

Not long until the final results...but it looks like the Olson's win the
'frog contest'.  Congratulations!  You guys get all my extra koi.  ;)
