    I'm not good on West Coast US species so that might explain why I'm coming up blank.

    You know, if it is 2 inches from nose to its rear end then it could be a pale looking Bullfrog - how big was the tadpole? It's definitely not a west coast native - I've been researching.

    The size and shape are very similar to Poe, my American Bullfrog froglet...but the colouring is definitely not the same. How interesting.....

    I just realized neither John or I answered your food question!!

    I recently had two tadpoles change into froglets, and while there was any hint of a tail left (even the smallest of nubs), neither one of them ate. When their bottom ends looked like a mini adult frog bum, that is when they began to hunt. I started them both off on small pinhead crickets and they have graduated up to two week old crickets. I put about 10-20 dusted crickets in every other day, and so far, both froglets (plus a third I received) are thriving.
