xenopus id required

[xxianxx]

I bought six of these guys from a seller in the UK. I had assumed they were going to be wild type X.laevis but they didn't look quite right, couldn't really put my finger on it but after chatting to the seller I found out that the adult males are 2.5" and the females 3" which puts them well below the size I would expect X.laevis to be. If somebody could id them for me that would be great so I can give them the optimum care. The difference in the frogs belly colouration is down to the substrate they were kept on and does change according to the seller.

I spoke with the seller of these on the Facebook group a while back. I am sure they are not Laevis. They look like Borealis to me. I asked her what the males sound like when they sing, but she never replied.

I'm the seller and I'm not on any Facebook groups so you must be thinking of someone else. Their call is very loud but I'm not sure if it's any different to laevis. I could upload a video/audio file?

It must have been on here then. I went back thru the FB group thinking perhaps someone used your pics, but I was wrong.
Anyway, do the males sound like ping pong balls?

I must be hitting the crack pipe too much lately, found the other thread and it appears I never left a comment????? Had the conversation in my head??

Probably

I'm not really sure what you mean by like ping pong balls. I don't know how I'd describe the sound. It will be easier for me to just upload a video tomorrow.
