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!
What kind of frog?
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,
congrats! an exciting thing for a frogger!
