    Talking An Even Dozen

    Weeeellll. Frog Addiction.


    That's really all I have to say right?

    This little one is now part of our frog family. We are kind of hoping for a female, since our other two Ornates are definite males. But I have noticed that Pacs have a tendency to turn out to be the opposite of which ever gender you are hoping for. And I seem to have a knack for picking out males. So we shall see. He/she is a fiesty little thing. Definitely didn't want to sit still for pictures (hence the blurry shots). He/she had a nice big bowel movement in the bath, which is always a good sign. And it has already demolished 3 wax worms and a chunk of nightcrawler. It probably would have eaten more waxies but you don't want to overfeed those. Anyway, we are very happy with our newest addition!

    Thanks Lija!

    It's been exactly one month and thirteen days since the last frog mysteriously showed up at my home. (No, I didn't know that off the top of my head.) He/she is from a local chain called Jack's Pets. I have a couple others from there as well.

    I kind of have a thing for even numbers, so I think I'll be set with twelve for a while. It's neat to be up to twelve on the twelfth month of 2012. At least I think so. And this little one seemed like the perfect choice!

    He is a pretty ornate. I like how he has two false eye spots behind his right eye. Hopefully he will turn into a big beautiful mother female for you guys! (knowing your track record, I'm already assuming it's a "he," lol!)

    Yeah.......I wouldn't doubt it being male. Funny thing is that male Ornates are kind of rare, but then again I can walk outside and find four leaf Clovers like they're calling out to me so I guess the hard to find is right up my alley Lol!

    it kinda sucks to have birthday on Christmas day. Friend of mine was born on dec 26, so she always was getting presents for Christmas only, with a little something on her actual birthday. as a child she was really mad at her mom for that lol, she got over it now or she says so, it is probably have something to do with a fact that her daughter was born on dec 28

    Very pretty ornate

    I hope it turns out to be a female for you. I still don't know what my two ornates are, the bigger (green) one has seemed to stop growing at close to 4", and "she" is around 7 - 8 months old now. My red one is still slowly growing I think. No sign of nuptial pads on either one.
