    I couldn't of put it better than Jace.
    You don't see very many solid greens these days. The red one looks like a fiery orange color. I've never seen a red like that, though it could be your great pictures.

    Thanks Kevin. Yes the little one is really that red. The big one only has a hint of red on the back of the eye lids.

    Do you know if you have girls, boys, one of each?? My African Bullfrogs just kind of sit there as well, but their colouring is nowhere near as spectacular. With colours like that, I would be pretty tempted to add one to my collection as well-not that I need anything else!! And I agree with Ebony-they look like they should be off balance and tip over with such big heads and smaller bodies. Definately gives them character, that's for sure. Congrats again and I'm sure everyone is looking forward to frequent updates and more of your great pictures!

    Jo-Anna: I've always found that African Bullfrogs get a lot more tame than Pacman frogs - Pacmans always seem detached from people - they really have two modes: nervous and scared of people, or immovable object. And they really don't move around - African Bullfrogs make Pacman frogs seem like inanimate objects.

    As for genders, it's very hard to tell. I get a male vibe from the small one though and a female vibe from the larger one, but that's not really based on any evidence.

    I agree about the African Bullfrogs, John. In terms of mobility, they don't do much, but they seem to like interaction-especially if food is involved!-and they appear to be interested in what is going on around them. When I had my Pacman, all she or he did was growl constantly, eat, and then stop eating. Within a month she or he was gone. I love all frogs, but I doubt I would ever get another one to keep as a pet.

    Well, as long as yours are healthy and eating and growing, it doesn't really matter if they are boys or girls. I wish you all the best with them!
