    Default Tadpole to Froglet

    How long does it take for a Pacman frog to grow from tadpole to a froglet? I'm trying to pinpoint the month my Pacman froglet was born.

    It takes them about 2-3 weeks for them to metamorphose to a frog.

    For a Pacman Frog to go from tadpole to froglet? Honestly speaking I'm a bit surprised as I thought it'd be much longer for them to go from tadpole with no legs to a froglet with 4 legs

    A lot of frogs that use temporary water sources can go from egg to froglet in 3 weeks or less, even in the US.

    In South Africa we have species that metamorphose in fifteen days. Such as ​Cacosternum boettgeri.

    Usually pacmans are about 4 weeks. If they are raised in cooler water its 5 to 6 weeks.
