Insect Direct Posted December 14, 2009 Report Share Posted December 14, 2009 bell frog of some sort most likely. how long is it, where did you find it? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
axolotl-danio Posted December 14, 2009 Author Report Share Posted December 14, 2009 They are about 5cm long and we got them at a local pet shop. The pet shop had no idea what they were. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Insect Direct Posted December 14, 2009 Report Share Posted December 14, 2009 my guess, southern bell...unless they came from the upper north island. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alanmin4304 Posted December 14, 2009 Report Share Posted December 14, 2009 That would be my guess also. 50cm is too big for whistlers and your location is too far south for green and golds. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SamH Posted December 14, 2009 Report Share Posted December 14, 2009 50cm is too big for whistlers 50cm is too big for any tadpole! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
livingart Posted December 14, 2009 Report Share Posted December 14, 2009 not really sam, i have seen them bigger when they have wintered over in small pools in shaded areas Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Freakz Nz Posted December 14, 2009 Report Share Posted December 14, 2009 lol - attack of the moster tadpoles !!!! I think he meant 50mm (5cm) not 50cm, as a taddy that size could take on a cat & win he he : ] Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alanmin4304 Posted December 14, 2009 Report Share Posted December 14, 2009 True. I got a bit mixed up there. I usually think in mm but ended up having a bit of both. Would you believe 50mm Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
