    Default "Chirping?"

    I keep seeing my azureus facing each other, and then "chirping". Anyone know why this is? Do they want to breed? They are not even fully grown yet, i think.. They have grown, could this be the start of a maturing territoriality issue? They seem to get along well most of the time, but every now and then (couple times a day if i'm home the whole day) i see this or i hear the chirping....

    Post some photos?

    We would love to see them

    Do you witness both of them call?

    Let's throw out some guesses re: what sex they are?

    Do you know -exactly- how old they are?

    Thoughts?

    Here you go. Some pics of the frogs, along with a tape measure. Sorry if they are too young to sex, and the chirping seems to come mostly from the bigger one ( a bit from the smaller), if that helps.

    EDIT: also, i'm regretting saying that i don't know how old they are... Got them in February of this year at a reptile expo from a reputable organization, however, and the frogs are healthy, so i haven't really put too much thought into age.

    Very pretty - Enjoy them !

    When they start calling ..........it will be a "little" sound
    It sounds like a bug

    The males can start calling at about 10 - 12 months - their call is very soft and hard to hear until they get the hang of it

    I believe D azureus reach maturity in 12-15 months
