Summer homes?

His typical behavior when inside is to sit in his water dish or to bury himself and stay under until I dig him out.

Did you have him under any special lighting when indoors? I'm curious as to whether UV lighting and such encourages more natural and active behavior? Mine's under a grow light for plants atm...he's in a fully planted terrarium...wonder if I might need to pick up a UVB bulb for him as well?

How's Klaatu been doing? Has he/she grown at all since you got her? I swear, Rocky may very well have GROWN since I got him! Seriously, that's insane!

Well, I did a Day 1/Day 8 photo on him the other day, and while I don't really have anything in the photo to gauge size, he's definitely filled out in the week and a half he's been here!



The pic is a little deceiving though, as my daughter decided she really wanted to 'pet him on the head' as I was getting my camera ready and he puffed up little bit, lol...didn't think he would do that until he was older! Besides that, he's doing typical froggy things....eating like a pig, digging little pot holes all over the place and lounging in the pool! He adores earthworms, gobbles up grubs, and goes simply bonkers for roaches, even though he has to work hard to catch the speed little devils, lol!

Once more, I just want to say how sorry I am to hear of Rocky's passing. I wish you knew what happened to the poor boy, so hard when things come out of nowhere like that.

I just have him under t5 strip lights or led lights. I think that I might do an experiment with the uv lighting and see if that changes anything.
