The only thing i know that tests for alcohol is a ankle bracelets and Im sure hes probably not going to do that :/ I am very sorry to hear that. If you ever have any questions about it or need help with anything let me know.


    Well since i was little, I have always loved lizards, fish, etc. I got my first frog when I was very young. I was too young to even remember how old I was XD All i remember was it was a fire belly toad and it died. Since then I have had bearded dragons and a water dragon. After I got clean, I had to find hobbies in other things. I tried a fish tank and soon after realized I am not a fish guy. I got some pretty gold fish and they ended up also dying. After that, I saw some frogs at petsmart and was very close to buying them. While I was looking around at everything I needed, I quickly changed my mind. I did not want those little fire bellies at petsmart, I wanted a red eyed tree frog. I quickly came home and did reasearch on them. After researching and searching for a good deal I ended up purchasing 2. Within a week, one of them died. I didnt realize they were field collected until after this happened and I feel like that was the cause of its death. The one that lived has grown to be nice and big. He calls EVERY night and til this day it puts a smile on my face. I ended up buying him a friend a few months ago hoping for a female. I bought it from a local pet store who has more exotic type animals. Since then, I cannot figure out if its a male or female. It is the same size as the male but doesnt call. They were acting sick and I sent in the fecals and found out they had hookworms. This was probably coming from the one that was field collected. I got some panacur and have been giving it to them for over a month and a half now. They seem to be doing great. They are eating well and growing like weeds. After I started my panacur with them I found a definite female on craigslist and purchased her. She sits in her tank by herself every day fat as ever and is just waiting for a couple males to sing to her and make some babies. I cannot wait.
    Now a few days ago I bought my first Poison Dart Frogs. I fell in love with them after going to another website to learn about building vivs. They are varaderos and have a ton of personality. I went to pick up 3 for me and 3 for my dad and ended up coming home with an extra one for me It is only 6 days out of water.Now they can compete with the red eyes on who can lay eggs the fastest hehe. I just really want to expand my frogging. Eggs are the next step.
    I am very happy to have stumbled across this website when searching about frogs. It is full of amazing people. You guys(and girls) are like family to me. Frogs keep me going back to old habits so having a family of froggers to talk to help a ton. Now I just wish we were all closer together so we could at least have a cook out every once in a while hehe.
    It's so great to learn more about you! Isn't it just the most amazing thing listening to the call?!? It doesn't matter how bad a day I have, as soon as one of mine starts calling I have to smile! I love best of all that they know our voices. Mine almost Never call if there is someone else in the house!

    This is certainly an awesome site. It is wonderful to be able to share the love of frogs with other people. Most people just don't get it!
