How big do Caatinga Horned Frogs get?

[charlesc84]

I bought a Caatinga back in in August/ maybe the beginning of September. It seems to be a bit of a slow grower. Right now it measures about 2'75 inches, but is plump and healthy. It also appears to be a male. Anyway, does anyone know how big Caatinga's get? I have a huge female Cranwell's and that was about 4 and a half inches just a few months after I got it.

While that comment is hilarious, I still wanna know. I can't find a video of any adults on youtube, and it's hard to tell how big they are in the pics I found.

The the throat sticks out and has dark patches on it. I'll post a pic of it here.

4-4.5 inches.

They reach the size of Cranwellies from what I understand which is the size. Mark posted above. If its a male he should be calling by now. Dark spots on the throat isn't always a sure sign, but can be used to idenify gender in some species. Males of most species will begin to call between 5 1/2 and 8 months of age.

Well, male or not is it considered to small for its age?

If you've been feeding him well and giving proper supplements as. Well as climate and it is male than this is not too small for his age.

I will have some babies availible next weekend if anyone is interested.

The caatinga size ive noticed is not consistant. There are some larger and smaller size adults. Really just depends on what you feed them early on in life.
