Tadpoles
Eggs
A female Bullfrog will lay eggs when she is 3-5 years old. She can lay up to 25,000 eggs. That float togther. Each tiny egg is wrapped in clear jelly to protect it. It takes 2-4 days for the eggs to hatch. Inside the egg the tadpole starts to grow a small but long tail.

Tadpole
The newley hatched tadpole swims in the water looking for food. It breaths with a pair of gills. It also has a pair of lungs growing inside of it. A tadpole stays a tadpole of 1-2 years. While it is a tadpole is grows a pair of back legs. Then soon after that it grows a pair of front legs.

Froglet
When a tadpole has its back legs its called a froglet. This is becuase its half frog half tadpole. When it becomes a froglet it grows its lungs and the gills will soon
go away. The Froglet's tail soon gets smaller until it dissapears.
Adult Bullfrog
The Froglet Turns into an adult when it has four legs and its tail is gone. The Adult spends most of the time on land and sometimes in water. it useally live 7-9 years.

NC and BM, Again I apologize for not getting your help request. PBWiki didn't sent it to me. As for your page, clicking edit didn't show many anything past ''gills will...." Are you sure that the rest didn't get accidentally erased? I'll look through the past edits and see if I can find out what went wrong. Mr M

Seems to be working. There won't be a vertical scroll bar since the page will be as long as your text (going down the page). Sometimes, it helps to put the cursor on the very last line and hit it a couple of time to put some white space under your article. But, it seems to be showing everything that is on the page right now. Mr M.
