OMG We found Pipin! XD

[Rae]

Ok so im so giddy right now!

I was sitting at the computer like I am now... waiting on an email or phone call about a new large terrarium I'm trying to buy. My husband comes down the stairs with something in his hands... first thought is omg I'm going to scream aren't I? Well I did ... kinda... more like an excited squeal.

My husband was in his garage and found a small Grey tree frog XD I named it Pipin as we already have Frodo, Sam and Merry. Merry just got out of her 30 day quarantine... so its perfect timing XD.

I will take pics tomorrow I don't want to stress the wee little one out too much... it is just smaller than an inch atm I think.

Frodo, Sam, Merry, Pippin...
You need a Bilbo, a Gollum, a Gandalf and a Legolas to complete your collection.

I love how greys just pop out of nowhere with their adorableness.

I liked the idea of new large terrarium )))

[Rae]

Ya through email she agreed to sell at the price I offered now I'm waiting on the phone call as when to expect drop off XD

Frodo, Sam, Merry, Pippin...

Actually when my husband handed it too me he walked away saying "No More" lol

I'm taking that as no more greys... -still looks into Whites- haha

[Lija]

haha hubby's and their "no mores" ))) mine was saying this 4 frogs ago, ( in july or end of June i think) :lol:

So within less than a week of having Pippin in quarantine we have confirmation on sex XD

the last couple nights I have heard small chirp noises while in bed... almost wondered if it was the damn crickets. Well today I came home from running errands and saw Pippins throat was all puffed out and I had misted right before stepping out for 15min. So I misted again after dinner as I remembered Frodo used to call every time I misted. I walked away and within 10min I heard chirping again... not like Frodo long loud ones but the little guy was trying lol. Sure enough he was on a different area all puffed out like when I got home XD. So we now have 2 confirmed males and 2 assumed females until they call hehe XD

[BeckyM]

Why assume when you can just flip them over and look? Or watch them climb with their bellies on the glass? Breeding age males have dark chins (I think of it as a froggy beard.) and females are all white on their bellies and chins.

[Rae]

That is not an exact science. I have seen full frown males with light throats... Frodos is dark but Pippins is light. Yes they say males "usually" have a darker throat can't be used to guarantee it.
