Re: The gang
The little bugger went from backed legged tad to nubbin tailed froglet in less than 48 hours. I've never seen one morph so fast and my fruit flies won't be in until Monday, hopefully. Gonna have to hit the pet shops in hopes in finding some tonite.

Re: The gang
The little Cope's Grey TF (Hyla versicolor) is growing but has a slight defect on one back leg. It had a kink in it's tail and I hoped that it wasn't going to cause issues, but well such is life. It still gets around with no problem which means I might be keeping it since it's defect might be genetic instead of environmental & I don't what to put it back out in the breeding stock.

Re: The gang
Hi Gail! Sorry the little froglet came out with issues. From 1st pic it appears the foot has an awkward bent too. Agree with you and if a defect showed in tadpole stage and continued on to froglet it's not mechanical and probably of genetic origin. If only skin, maybe it will get better or a small snip cut followed by antibiotics could help. But if ligaments or tendons are involved, then it will stay. Do you see any vertebral column issues? Thank you

Re: The gang
I haven't looked with the magnifying glass yet, but I don't know if the Vet would do a snip on the little thing or not, but then if it's just skin and just cosmetic, I don't care. Like I said, it moves great around the tank with no issues and seems to be eating, though I haven't seen it eat yet.

Hi Gail,Originally Posted by kueluck
I think I would give this some time; let him get some size on him.
Keep an eye on his leg development ( upper thigh ) , jumping etc.
He's a cutie
