Thread: We've got calling! We've got calling!

    Default We've got calling! We've got calling!

    I kid you not. I received these guys back on August 7th and they were sold to me as froglets. I don't know how old froglets are suppose to be, but I thought these frogs only start calling once they are 4-6 months old. It wasn't that really loud, colorful sound that I've heard on YouTube videos, but it was definitely a frog calling.

    At first I thought it was a escaped cricket, but I keep those and my Arachnids in another room and then I realized it was the afternoon and crickets don't call till after it gets dark.

    Anyone's opinions would be appreciated. Even if they weren't calling and it was my imagination, I don't care. My frogs are awesome and I want more!

    I went through my footlocker and found an old school Panasonic cassette player with voice activated recording. Tomorrow morning I'm setting it up on top of the frog tank and see if I can get a recording.

    I may be crazy but I ain't no fool!

    It's not common for them to call before 6-8 months but there have been rare reports of them calling between 2-4 months.

    Well, I wasn't imagining it because I've heard them several more times since Tuesday.

    It is exciting to hear them for the first time. I just wasn't expecting to hear them for another couple months.

    Thanks everyone,
