No, the size of a frog's legs is not a reliable indicator of its age. Although a common myth suggests that a frog's age can be determined by the number or size of the rings on its legs, this is not true.

The only way to accurately determine the age of a frog is by looking at its teeth, counting the rings on its bones, or measuring its body size and weight over time. However, these methods are not practical for most people and are generally only used by scientists conducting research on frog populations.

It's worth noting that different species of frogs have different growth rates, so even using accurate methods, it can be difficult to determine the exact age of a particular frog.
