we knew they were Greys bc my neighbor has a few living on her pool deck. The tadpoles were in her pool cover. You probably won't find any now, as they have probably all morphed in the wild.

You'll only know for sure if you try! I still have a bunch of tads that I believe are grays, so there still might be some left in the wild. Just make sure you collect them legally... I don't know what the laws are in New York concerning collecting amphibians. I got mine from family owned property, out of a pond that was about to be chlorinated... I'll be releasing them on different private property, or the ones I don't keep anyway...

How old were they when they started 'chirping'? I raised from egg and released 130 Cope's Grey over last summer. When the first cold snap came the first of Nov. I still had 5 and REFUSED to let them go in the cold! So...they spent a very nice snuggy winter inside being VERY well cared for. I'm suspecting 3 were female (Bertha, Lulu and Clara) and 2 male (Bert and Ernie). We released them the day after Mother's Day this year, so give or take they were about 7-8 mo. old. So far this year I've got 6 in the 'nursery' that are about 3 wks. old and later today will transfer 4 more in. They've got all their legs, tail is gone and climbing up the sides of the 'morph container'. There are literally HUNDREDS more in various stages. It's a labor of Frog Love.

i don't remember how old they were, but i waited for a long time. i even played FROG SOUNDS cd's, but nothing and one day i had the music on and one of them started. then they would randomly chirp. i love it. one time the phone ringing set them off, they like background music from tv shows, especially with violin.
