    Talking The little ones grow so fast!

    Hey guys. I just got back from my dad's buisness trip in Galveston. Left Wednesday, got back tonight. I went and fed Cody (that is my Albino's name now ) and other animals, etc. Turned off the lights, walked out the room. Afew hours later I came in the room assuming that Cody would be roaming, so I turned on the room light dimmer to not very bright. I went and looked in Cody's tank, and I swear my heart skipped a beat or two! Literally for a split second or less my brain was thinking,"who put this Pacman Frog in here, and where is Cody??". Then it was even scarier to come to the realization that this was Cody! He grew SOO much over the last few days since I had seen him standing unburrowed! He is a monster! That just all made me think of all you all's Pacman Frogs that are (or were LOL) little babies! They grow so fast, it is incredible! My near death experience just made my day! Hooray for baby Pacman Frogs!

    Lol!!! They do grow super fast! My baby has lost his baby face already, lol! I got my baby on sept 20th and he measured 1 1/2". I measured him yesterday at 3"!!! Crazy!

    We should all update our photos with one baby photo and one now and tell when it was that the first photo was taken .

    Any photos of Cody?

    Yeah, that's a good idea Heather! Loki is growing fast too. But he still looks tiny compared to Grif! I can pretend he's a baby for a little while longer. All I have to do is look from one frog to the other!

    Thanks for all the compliments everyone! I just recorded another feeding video, and it is so much fun to watch Pacman Frogs strike at 32 frames per second, one frame at a time! That is when you see all the ninja moves that you can't catch at full speed.

    Hey artes! Long time no see. When you ask about my other guy I assume you are talking about my green cranwelli, Malcolm. It pains me to say but unfortunately Malcolm passed of unknown causes August 10th 2011 at the age of 4 1/2 months. From all visible signs he was a healthy frog, but later in life he had trouble eating on his own, so I wonder if he didn't develope some kind of digestive issue later in life like C.cranwelli have been known to do. His memory is still alive in my heart, though. Rest In Peace, Malcolm.

    That is the reason my parents let me get my little albino, Cody, who is a fast grower and a very vicious hunter. I am very sad Malcolm passed, but good things come from almost everything.

    I was referring to Malcolm. I'm so sorry to hear it, but I'm glad little Cody is doing well! My albino one, Hedea, got the same problems Malcolm did and passed away. Its very sad, but we gave them a great home before they passed to the other lake, and that's really what matters in the long run.

    Lol!

    My baby Tank seems to grow about 1/2" every two weeks or so.

    This is September 20th, when I brought him home...




    And here he is now (10/24/11)...




    It seems as he gets older his colors fade a bit. His green is almost gone now.

    That is really neat! It is perfectly normal for green C.cranwelli to slowly loose their green coloration as they mature. It is amazing how big Tank has gotten!

    Okay, here's the recent pics of my lil Bufo baby, (he's not a baby anymore lol) got a few of them on my hand so you guys can see the difference...






    Thought these other two pics were cute, when he was soaking in his dish:



    I mean, just look how small he was before!
