Pics of My Wood Frogs

[frogluver]

Here are some pictures of my Wood frogs I captured this year. Enjoy !


Two of my males hanging out together.



They sit on top of each other like this all the time lol....it's cute .



He came up to the glass when I brought my camera out, too funny!




Here is one of my juvenilles in a temporary holding container, waiting to be put into a vivarium I'm building him.




My littlest woodie, only .5 inches in length, also waiting for the viv I'm building.



He's/she's pretending to be a tree frog lol!!



And finally, all three of my male Woodies sitting together. I like to call them the three musketeers !

These pics are really unique. I like them all. They are nice looking little frog. Now I know why you like them.

[frogluver]

Thank you ! They make really good picture subjects too....very calm and still for the camera.

Cute... I have a wild group of these that live in my basement.

[frogluver]

That's cool! How long have you had them ?

[Dog Shrink]

I started seeing them about mid last summer. They must have found a good place to brumate, I have a field stone foundation so a lot of crevaces, and I'm pretty sure this year I've seen 2 different sizes and colors. Hopefully male and female, hopefully they find a place to reproduce, if they can find a place to lay, I'll have more next summer. My rabbitry is in the basement so they really help with the bugs and spiders. I'd welcome a bunch more I also get th occasional woodhouse toad as well. They come from the closed off well outside the basement window.

That's really neat and that would be awesome if they reproduced! I plan to breed some Wood frogs soon myself .

They look great. Love the colours, the picture of them sat together is great.

That would be really cool... from my understanding wood frogs are one of the harder species to keep because they're so particular about their habitat but I guess my basement is providing something they like. I honestly never thought I'd see them again after winter (winters here get ungodly cold), but was pleasantly surprised when I finally did see them come out again. I hope you have success with your future breeding attempts.

Thank you ! Yeah, your right about that lol! I have kept several Wood frogs over the past 7 years and have had problems in keeping them. However, through careful observations, I have found successful ways in caring for them. Do you think they might hibernate in your basement?

They're so cute! Great pictures!

Yup they sure are lol ! Thank you!

Hey Autumn we have some wood frogs here in NY. You have a better chance finding a $100 bill than a woody tho.lol They also breed in February-April here,witch is very cold. I heard they are very hard to find . Is that tru.

[frogluver]

Lol . Yeah, Woodies will breed even when there is snow still on the ground or ice in the pond. It’s actually quite amazing how these frogs can handle these conditions for egg laying. Anyways to answer your question…..it really depends on where and when you are looking for them. Woodies are found in the open woods, near ponds, or in areas that aren’t highly populated. It is relatively easy to find a Wood frog during their breeding season because you can hear them calling and can locate them easier. To find them outside of the breeding season is somewhat harder. They usually travel up to 3 km from their breeding sites and hide under logs or in cool, shady, grassy areas. During the fall is when it’s very hard to find them. They go into the pre-hibernation stage and bury themselves under the fresh leaf litter. I tried to find some Woodies last year during the fall and there wasn’t a single frog in sight. It’s like they completely vanished into thin air lol!

[Heatheranne]

That's pretty cool!

[frogluver]

Yup, sure is lol !

Very nice all around.

They have that alert and intelligent look to them.
