Why is this tadpole still a tadpole (8 months later)?
My kids (10 and 12) caught this tadpole last June, as a little guy. As it got bigger, we figured it was a bullfrog tad.
Why hasn't it metamorphosed?
They've been taking good care of it..... obviously, I guess, b/c it has grown and it's still alive after all this time. They're quite experienced keepers now b/c of all the other frogs and toads that we have in the house. They change half the water every few days, feed it (and 2 big snails) turtle pellets and fish food every couple of days. It's 2.5 in. long and as active as a tadpole cares to be.
What's up?
