Size:  74.9 KBI am located in Starke Florida and I have a small lake or pond outback of where I live.
    I went out and caught alot of tadpoles to raise as to I am a frog lover but then I came across these little guys and thought they were so cute.
    I am just not sure what species they are. I thought maybe spring peepers due to a upside down V on their back and 2 broken spotted stripes forming an upright V at the top and a distinct stripe across the top of their head from eye to eye.
    I know they are not cricket frogs, green tree frogs, or toads.

    I also caught some spring peeper tadpoles in which i identified by their size, spots, and white stripe between their nostrils.pic below.

    So cool, that's a lot of tree frogs! I would guess they are grey tree frogs. They look very much like my little guy did when he was still young! Good luck with all those babies!

    Hate to burst your bubble on the spring peeper or grey tree frog guess.... But those are toads. Gotta love saying the word toad. XD Probably southern, oak, or american toads still to small to really tell though; but I would guess southern toad. Cute little things aren't they. XD You can tell that they are toads because of the markings above their eyes and the spots on their backs.

    Those guys have toe pads and are climbing the side of the enclosure. Unless he has in tilted they would not be climbing the sides of the tank if they were toads would they?

    They do look pretty toady. When this small and wet, any frog or toad can suction itself up a smooth plastic or glass wall.

    Yep. Like I said in my last post the thing that gives them away for being toads is their spots. I am certain they are southern or oak toads though, I tend to see alot of babies around here during spring and summer. They are cute.
