That is pretty wierd that they have not grone legs yet. One explanation could be that sometimes in the larve stage of an animal like a crab or frog the animal reaches sexual macheraty before they transform into the adult animal. This is how many species of plankton are formed. The frogs are probbaly just a litle late,but this is also a possibilaty. Keep us posted!!!

Leopard frogs can take awhile to mature. Keeping them warmer can speed their growth a bit.
I hate hearing people say "it's only a $3/$5/$1 fish/shrimp, so it's ok if it dies, I can just get another." It's still an animal! All animals should be treated like they're worth $10,000.

my daughter just fed the tadpoles. They get spooked when someone messes with the tank and swim around rapidly, stirring up whatever crud has been generated since the last water change. A piece of poop ended up coming to rest on the smallest tadpole's head. My daughter thought that was hilarious. She said that "he's pretending he's wearing a hat!".

It's hard to see, but that tad is getting legs. Warming the water slightly might help. Are they leaning on floating objects a lot? This means legs soon as well.
