-
A jelly-covered egg is produced in the water.
-
About 10 days after the egg is fertilized, it hatches a tiny tadpole that uses its tail to swim.
-
In about 9 weeks, the tadpole then begins to sprout legs.
-
As the tadpole continues to grow, its tail shrinks and its front legs begin to form in about 12 weeks. The lungs develop and its eyes and mouth begin to grow larger.
-
At the end of 16 weeks, the tail has disappeared and the froglet is now a frog!
