This first of four pics is of one of the males where I just missed him calling
The second is a different male but this time I caught the call. The call is VERY loud btw. You wouldn't believe such a big sound could come out of such a tiny frog !
This is the female hiding away from the attention of three males.
And lastly the final male guarding his eggs which are in a film canister.
Sorry the pics are not the best, but this is a very old camera. My newer camera is just terrible at close-up pictures, even on macro.
Hope you enjoy them
Thank you ! For posting these great photos.
Congrats on the eggs!
We wold love to follow their progress !
If you have an iPhone ----this little gadget is a blast !

Thank you.
As these eggs are nearly a week old I will be leaving them where they are until just before they are due to hatch.
When I get some more, I plan to remove them to a petri dish and attempt to make a time-lapse video of their progress.
If I can make one good enough (I am very critical of my own work, probably over critical) I would be happy to share it with everyone.
I do have an iphone and seeing that little gadget you sugested I just had to have one (Bit of a gadget freak here) and have just placed the order for one
Not sure if I should thank you or curse you for making me spend even more money
So for now I will thank you.
Oh ! That's great...You will not be sorry. It's a blast !
It the best toy I have purchased in a long time.
Take a peak at my R imitator 'Varadero' egg development album.
The majority of the photos were taken with the olloclip macro lens.
One of these days the mister is going to come on when I have my head in an enclosure and mess up my iPhone -yikes.
Have fun - Lynn

Very gorgeous frogs! Quite stunning colors.
Lynn That is exactly my kind of luck ! I don't have a mister YET! But it is next on my to buy list. The purchase of the olloclip has put that off a little longer.
YourSoJelly Thank you, although the camera I used really doesn't do them justice. It washes out the colour in the stripes and makes the body colour look a bit muddy for want of a better word.
Lynn, if those pictures aren't testimonial enough to get one, the I don't know what is !
Just out of interest, which model iphone did you use ?
Here you go:
I can't believe I saved the box!
BTW ( I have an iPhone 4GS )

Exactly the one I ordered, although I got black instead of red. hmm.... I guess that makes it not so exactly then.
I have a 4 and a 4s, I just wondered in case you had a 5 which I think may have a slightly better camera and I would then not get quite as good results as you.
Thanks for clearing that up, it gives me hope for my own results.
