We have a few ADFs, family's first pets. And slowly learning about them as we go along.
 
I noticed today, one of them has something strange with his rear feet. Instead of having 5 distinct "fingers", its has 4. And on the 2nd to largest "finger" it branches 3/4 of the way up into 2 different toes. This is on both feet.
I have attached a ms paint of what im talking about to help understand
 
 
Is this a normal deformity? He seems to be ok i guess. He still eats. Not as strong a swimmer as our biggest frog, but is still able to get around. Any cause for concern?

As long as it is eating and can swim up for air I would not worry. How deep is your water in your tank?  If ever he has trouble swimming up for air you may lower it some to help it out:)  Hope all is going well.
