    Those are american bullfrog tadpoles not Pyxicephalus tadpoles. I've raised many of them.

    Any idea's on what i should do about this, I didn't want to raise frogs that I'm capable of catching in my pond. I suppose I'll return to the pet store and raise some (bleep). Kind of fun taking care of them tho. They're on the eat a pellet make a pellet diet. Kind of messy, but i'll just kick on the filter for about 10 minutes and it seems to collect all of the pellets that aren't food. lol

    Still no morph since original post. Havn't really changed in size either. Sad face. I talked to the owner of the pet shop and she said '' oh, these are bullfrogs from california, not pyxie. They didn't know what they were talking about." >:-|

    There hasn't been much change in size on these tadpoles since original post from what i can tell. 2 have turned a lighter green color and the other 2 are still very dark swampy green. no legs or anything. Any ideas? I had 1 die and another one come up missing like a ninja, i honestly don't know where he went but there is always a lid on it so... They havn't morphed in any way

    From what I've heard, they take a long time to morph.

    From what I've observed with mine, some took two years while others took 5-6 months and everything in between. They were all kept in the same body of water. Which leads me to believe some genetic factors might be at work.
