    Well I may as well do this before I go to bed , ok where to start I live on a 400 acre dairy farm about an hour away from Melbourne growing up around cattle and all the wildlife we have around here I guess sparked my obsession with animals, I'm 17 just about to be legal in 1 month yay! Love my dirt bike and bush walking, but most of all I'm a huge western bulldogs fan which is a team in the afl(Australian football league) guess you could call me a fanatic, what else... I LOVE game of thrones and just watched episode 1 of season 3 best show ever in my opinion haha, just like a normal teenager like to party but I also have tiny mouths to feed! Another thing is I have been to Hawaii and New Zealand and this year will be going to Germany with my dad which shall be fun. So I love to travel and one day would like to film wildlife in there natural habitat as a profession! Anyway that's about all I can think of for now it's 12pm here so I'm getting tired, just like to say thanks for the opportunity

    Ok well like a lot of people I came to keep frogs through my love of reptiles, I thought I might try something different and it went on from there, I went easy first with the southern brown tree frog which is local and doesn't need heating humidity etc, that then carried on to striped marsh frogs which I bred and had several generations of(hoping to get back into them soon!), and now leads me to my 3 Aussie green tree frogs which are full of personality and great to look after. There are always mistakes along the way, I made the mistake of leaving a tiny gap in one of my original tanks and the little southern brown escaped and I never saw him again , but we learn from that. I'm glad to say that none of my frogs have died from anything other than old age apart from the escapee. I found frog forum looking for a place I could learn and what better place than this I say , I would still say that frogs are a sub obsession as you know here in Aus the reptiles are awesome. But I will continue to keep frogs for a very long time especially litoria chloris which I will eventually go for!
