Day six and we have LEGS! Tiny little legs have burst forth, literally overnight. I guess they are now juveniles instead of babies!

I have contacted the University Amphibian specialist and hope to have news on species identification within a week.

Also Please forgive the quality of the photography. I am still trying to figure out how to capture the underwater from above the water.
