Help! Long story short, I saved about 100 tadpoles from a pool cover in july. I put them in a big black garbage can with some sticks rocks and leaves. Some are starting to get legs, but fall is around the corner and im wondering when these lil shits are gona be frogs or toads and hop away? I recently read that some frogs hibernate deep in the mud of ponds over the winter.....So do i have to store this make shift tadpole home over winter? If it freezes will they die. Any advice would be helpful.

Find a pond and dump the tadpoles in it.

very difficult to diferentiate if you don't know the species exactly...but following a more or less common rule, frog ones don't get bigger than the tip of your middle finger, and toad ones can become a lot bigger, sometimes even thumb-tip size

where do you live, send pictures of the tadpoles if you can get any decent pictures
whatever they are should definatley morph out before winter and go on their merry way
But if you post pics i can help identify them
