Hi Coleen,
Congratulations
It's contagious - right !

I'm assuming you went to the White Plains show?
It's a great show. I missed today's show.... first one I missed in a very long time.
If you went to WP--- then you got to visit BJ's table !!

It's really great you are doing the QT properly
Way too people skip that

I forget.... How old are- ALL - of them ?

the 2 frogs i have originally are both about 14 months old. the new guy is about 11 months. the new guy was bought from genesis exotics, but did not know the line. i have been to WP before, but it's been a few years. it was very clean and great vendors today. makes me never want to go back to Hamburg.

So, you should be hearing calling soon(ish) ???
They could be months off- ie are they 11 months from oow ( out of water) or 11 months from tadpole stage??
A breeder should be able to tell you the oow date-. If it's important to a buyer.

I could tell you ---to the day everything about ( my charges) a froglet's development.....

I date everything-
Above:
the circled 6 mean the # of tads
>7/15 means free swimming tadpole( s) into water



So my point is is. Your new cutie could be younger than 11 months?
It's good to know the # of months oow .
Dosn't really matter in the long run. however.
Most breeders can not tell us male or female unless they are absolutely certain.
In the end- it's still a guess

I have 3 tincs ( ' new river' ) together right now...I purchase them as juveniles in sept 13'
The breeder ( of whom I respect tremendously --- thought they were 3 females ?)
I'm still holding out. I think have 2 females and 1 male . Maybe it's wishfully thinking.

I'll take a guess ?? ( you'll have to let me know )
I can - guess the sex sub-adults leucomelas with pretty well
But --- sometimes they can surprise us !

In post #1 - pic #1 - looks like a male to me ?
Your new beauty looks like a female?

Post some additional profile shots? Don't tell me who's who.
I guess again. Lets see if I make the same guesses

It's difficult for a breeder to be exact on ages - especially if you are purchasing from a
company that has a specific group of individuals with 'hands-on 'the tadpole rearing.
I have never purchased from frogs Genesis - but have seen them there many times.
If I purchase frogs at the show -- It is from 3 or 4 other vendors.

BTW- Some of us meet at White Plains - we usually make a post about it.
Keep any eye out for that:
1) White Plains in November 14'
2) Long Island in March 15'
- I have heard a rumor ? they are hoping to make the LI show bigger

Yes--- White Plains is a great show
This past Sunday was the first time I missed a WP show in a long time - years !!
I just didn't need anything-------well we never "need" anything

i did not get the frog from Genesis, the person i bought it from did. he told me the frog is about 11 months old, but that is all he could tell me. i guess he got it when it was a baby. i have had a difficult time getting the frogs to pose correctly for me, so i will keep trying. if i have 3 females it is fine as long as they all get along. if i have 2 males still fine with that. so whatever happens is ok unless i have 1 male and the females fight. then i will sell one of the females.
