How long has it been since you got the tadpole? Do you know it's age? Is it really a tadpole? The time it takes for a frog to undertake metamorphosis from a tadpole to a frog is about 24 hours.
Leopard frogs may live up to 9 years in the wild, although very few leopard frogs will live for this long. Most mortality occurs as a tadpole or newly transformed froglet, when as many as 95% will die.
It depends on the species. The bigger the frog the longer it takes. A tiny tree frog could take a onth or two, and a huge bullfrog could take five months.
The time for eggs to hatch varies among species, as does the time for the hatched tadpole to complete metamorphosis into an adult frog.
I can take a leopard frog tadpole two to four months to go from an egg to metamorphosis.
The length of frog development from egg to tadpole to frog usually takes between 6 to 12 weeks. But it is also temperature dependent, so during cold spells it may take a bit longer or even be suspended till the temperatures go up.
Depends on the species of frog, the country and the size of the body of water. Generally in America, eggs laid in a smaller body of water (a road rut) the eggs will evolve from a creature that has gills and is entirely needful of water to live into one that has no gills and is in need of lesser degrees of water, in about two-three months (green frog, pickeral frog). In a larger body of water--pond--the same species may take another month or more. The above process also depends on the water not becoming too warm or drying up or being polluted. Some species (bullfrog, in a lake ) can remain a tadpole for two years or more. The tiger salamander's tadpole (axolotl) in a lake where it is impossible to leave the water (steep shoreline) may retain its gills and breed. Some (Sumatra Toad) may carry on its metamorphosis within the parent and be born as a "baby" frog.
No. As with most reptiles the babies are on their own the moment they hatch. The frog has a tadpole stage that often becomes a food source for larger fish.
A week or two depending on how long ago it hatched. It always depends on the species. A tree frog took about 5 weeks (a little over a month), and a bullfrog tadpole took 2 years! Usually, tree frogs and smaller frogs take less time while massive frogs such as bullfrogs, pacman frogs, and others take years.
normally it should take a bull frog about 2 years to grow to full size. A normal one should take 5-6 months.
The size of a tadpole depends entirely on what type of tadpole it is. For example, the South American frog Pseudis paradoxa has a tadpole that reaches 10 inches in length, whereas the American Toad, Bufo Americanus, has a tadpole that only gets about 3/4" long.
It takes approximatly one month for tadpoles to turn into adult frogs.
