He'd make a tasty snack for a bird or snake, which we have plenty of. I know I wouldn't know if it happened but just the thought of it!....

It may be sad to think about, but they are made to be pretty disposable in the wild. You don't have a critter that can lay 1000 eggs at a time have even a significant percentage of it's young make it to adulthood without quickly being overrun with them. It's hard to think that way with one you have a vested interest in though

UncleChester, you have a 3 legged gray!? I didnt know they could survive, well he probably wouldnt have in the wild huh, Any pictures?

Picture attached below. He was wee then (it's from a year ago). I thought he would grow up with just a messed up hand, but it looks like his entire arm hasn't grown at all since I've had him (the rest of him has), so it's pretty useless now. He hops around well, but is noticeably worse at climbing and would likely have been snake bait in the wild (good chance of that for a healthy one too). I've seen many other messed up young frogs and have resisted the urge to take them in though. I have a soft spot for Grays.

If i do keep them, do any of you have experience with these peepers? What kind of heating/ lighting if any is needed? I've been keeping them as realistically close
to their natural environment as possible, including opening the window & giving fresh air & sounds (does sound like heaven!) but not sure what to do for them for winter.

I've never kept them, I'm somewhat concerned at their volume when calling to try. They'd be fine with no heating (room temperature is fine) or special lights, and you need a supply of small food items. There are a couple members here who do have some and will hopefully chime in with more detail.
