    That sounds like amplexus. Does it look like a hug from behind and the one holding is on the others back?

    What is amplexus? if your thinking they could be mating I don't think so they are way to young for that and yes it looks like a hug from behind.

    Amplexus is the mating position of Amphibians. Tomato frogs only get 2-4" total STV (Snout to Vent) length, so are you sure they are not full grown? From your descripton, it does sound like Amplexus.

    They are only the size of a quarter and now I think about it more the one that is a little bit bigger was not on top of the other one only one of it's front leg was on it's head now do males have a vocal sac? because the one that is smaller seems to have one but not sure.
