My little cousin caught some tadpoles and gave me some ^.^

Iv been feeding them boiled lettus and black worms but I don't think they eat the worms. And I tried algae wafers today but they don't seem to even take notice of it.

Oh god!! I definitely DO NOT want a bullfrog lol
I googled the pictures and it's MASSIVE!! do they live in Australia?
 
I am sorry but I think bullfrogs are found in australia. Takes two years for them to turn into frogs.

Um, they are called "American bullfrogs" for a reason ;) so no, it is not a bullfrog if the OP is from Australia lol what part of Australia are you from?
 
Victoria lol it's pretty cold around here so I'm not sure if that could play a part? It's about 17 most of the time and it's been raining HEAPS!
 
It is possible for it to be an American bull frog they were introduced to Australia many years ago and are quite a pest there according to some friends of mine there.
 
Except that it is way too small to be a bullfrog and the pattern doesn't seem to match. Bull frog tads are very large and are almost entirely a greenish brown
 
Hmm.. My little cousin told me that she once got some tadpoles from the same place and her dad raised them to spotted marsh frogs but then she also told me some grew to a different type but I forget the name :S
 
Sometimes google is your best friend ;) try typing in "tadpoles of Victoria" and things like that and try and find an identification guide :) that's at I always do!
 
Would more pictures help?
They've got their little back leggies now ^.^ they're so cute hehhe they look like either a brown tree frog or a wood frog to me due to the stripes that are on it.
 
Going to send the photos separately
