Yes, please and thank you!I will continue posting daily so who ever likes this stuff can see daily changes to legs, skin color, mouth formation and tail absorbtion. Just about 2 week or so..
Thanks for visiting
I never got to experience watching tadpoles grow into frogs so I am really enjoying your pics. Amazing how they grow and change and so quickly!So today was difficult to get a good shot. They might have itchy leg syndrome with the little stubs and were to active.
Pic 5 is my male adult honey blue eye morph about 4" ( he was caught sleeping with his eyes open).
Pic 6 is one of the new babies give a high 4 with his hands and high 5 with his feet. This guy is about 1" in size and 4 weeks out of the water.

Cheese!!!! So they will change very quick and wanted to share the mouth (sucker) before it stops eating and gets a real mouth. You can also see there are tiny front leg pouches on the sides. The front legs grow in the pouch and just before (few days) they leave the water will pop out.
I truly appreciate you guys and gals for viewing because I probably would just enjoy watching them grow and take some pics and videos, but this way, I see so much more too..

Very cool! Love the little legs! 
Not much happening today so added some pics I just took of other frogs and toads.
Pic 3 is my female White's Tree Frog and pic for is her home. Just cleaned and fixed the filtration system so I can add fish.
Pic 5 is one of the female Yellow Spotted Climbing Toads and yes they climb so the picture is actually how she sits. When making their habitat I foamed grooves and hides for them and added 2 layers of black silicone along with sand and coconut fiber. Seems to work. Sand and Coconut fiber keeps the crickets and superworm from burrowing into it..
Pic 6 is the second female hiding behind but we see her.. Silly gal
Have a good night ya'll

The front legs have not popped out yet.
Pic 6 are those tree frog toe pads that will help him climb all over the place.
Pic 7 is one that is starting to use his nostrils to breath and check out what is going on above the surface..
EDIT! So as I was going over some of the pictures and getting closer looks I noticed a front hand with the signature 4 fingers, so zoomed in on it..
Pic 8----

Few pics in the morning-- Note: I take a lot of pictures and notice little things and will go back and compare.
1. First I look for the legs (both front and back).
2. Second is for the ability to breath under and above water as the lungs are developing.
3. Stop feeding as the mouth develops and their tail becomes their food source, This happens in a few days as they leave the water.
Wait for a few days and start giving them live little bugs. Note: Frogs can be trained to eat pellets and be hand fed (for those that would like a challenge). Make sure everything is clean and sterile.
4. Since these are morph frogs (different colored parents and unknown other features- to me) I start looking for the eyes, skin, and spots to change color and pattern.
5. This is the last time (again). I keep a visual record with lots of pictures for projects in the future (education, book or just sharing).
This is the first time noticing the changes via zoom shots to this degree ( one of the reason I am so excited seeing the changes -- just in awwww every time I look at them). Usually I just take some pictures and then notice legs, arms, and color changes. So this is a little different for me.
Pic 2 is breathing through nose and only 1 eye out of he water (the eyes go from the side to more on the top of head for just a few days and return to the sides again--- weird), but the next 3 are his little front arms trying to escape. I am sure there will be little arms out later today or tomorrow. Crossing fingers! Now to prep for container they can leave the water easily and safe.
Thanks for your time. Peace!

More like "what the hell is happening to me?!"
Thanks for keeping us updated with photos almost in real time. I forgot how quickly amphibians transform from water to land, it never ceases to facinate me!
