Probably not. The female most likely releases her eggs in the water as soon as the male frog signals to do so, and the male frog then fertilizes the eggs.

Grow-A-Frog frogs don't exist. Though, if they were to exist, the answer would probably be yes, as with most frogs.

Because their eggs need to be moist and the tadpoles have gills and need water to breathe.

Are frogs and toads member of the same species?

No because some frogs are not the same species (i.e. a bull frog is not a tree frog) and cannot mate to form a fertile offspring. However, frogs are of a similar phylum as toads. Further information:Although frogs and toads are both amphibians, they are completely different species from each other. Frogs belong to the family Ranidae while toads belong to the family Bufonidae.


Comparison between frogs and toads?

Toads have round bodies that are dry and bumpy. Frogs have thin bodies that are smooth and moist. Toads have short stubby legs that do not jump very far in proportion to body length, while frogs have long legs that jump great distances in proportion to body length. The tadpoles of the toads are generally black, while the tadpoles of frogs are generally brown. Toads live on land and only return to water to mate, while most frogs will live in or near water they're whole lives. Toads have glands behind their eyes called paratoidglands that producebufotoxinwhich varies in intensity, while frogs have no such glands. Toads have "warts" which let them store fat, while frogs don't. Frogs' skin can allow them to get small amounts of oxygen, while the toads' skin cannot do that. Toads hibernate in holes they either dig or find, while frogs will just bury themselves in the mud at the bottom of the pond to hibernate. Frogs have longer legs and can jump farther in proportion to body length, while toads have shorter legs and jump less than the frog in proportion to body lengthToads and frogs also tend to differ when they lay eggs. Toads typically lay eggs in a string in the water. Frogs tend to have theirs in a big bunch.
