Someone got grumpy while his tank was being cleaned.

Woohoo! I was so excited to measure Nugget. I finally got to, and he is about 2.5 inches snout to vent.

Also, I was quite upset, my mom got to see him shed this weekend and I MISSED IT! I was so upset, but mostly jealous.

Oh, and I'm not actually sure he is a he. haha

2.5 inches could be around 4.5 to 5.5 months old. If he is a she then she will grow much larger. If she is a he than he only has about 1 to 1.5 inches to go before he reaches near max length.

Don't worry. When he hits a growth spurt he will shed every other day to every couple days.

WOW! I didn't know he was that young! Here I had been thinking I had a frog much older- shows how much I know. Anyway, I'm glad I've been feeding every night then, because I know younger frogs need to eat more often.

Any way to tell for sure if he is a he or a she? I would look for nuptial pads but now I see its probably too early, and also Nugget is not too fond of my fingers anywhere near him.

You can feed him everyother day if you like. He should be old enough so that you can cut back a little on feeding now. It is ok to offer him food everyday, but he could have small meals every night or a little more everyother night.
