Default What triggers toad/frog croaking?

Cybe wrote yet yesterday I saw several bullfrog tads in my
back pond.

Were they fairly well developed tadpoles? An inch long as compared to emerging
taddies from the egg?
Bullfrog tadpoles will winter over and then change
the following spring. Again, all temperature (and I'll be food) dependent.
Greenfrog tads will also winter over.
The adult bullfrogs will try and eat their babies both in tad and emerging frog
form. I had thousands of eggs laid and the following year I found one large
taddie.
