Pacific Chorus Frog

[lnaminneci]

I hope she sticks around too. We are getting a bit attached to her now, especially since my son named her..)
I was getting worried about her, since it got soo hot outside, so I started researching on the internet and found this site. I placed a small dish of water about 1/2 inch deep or so outside, but she doesn't seem interested in it. I'm hoping that there is enough food (bugs) for her to find on my balcony. Should I try to get some bugs for her? Crickets or something from a pet store?
I don't have a container to put her in to keep her inside, and she seems soo happy outside, I hate to disturb her.

Frogs usually stick around a food source, so if she is hanging out there, I am sure she is finding something to eat. I'm positive she wouldn't mind a cricket or two, but if you let them go on your balcony, you might find a cricket or two inside! Nothing like waking up with a cricket in your bed ! As long as she doesn't look skinny, I wouldn't worry too much. Personally, I am all for keeping wild frogs in the wild, but if a frog is injured, hungry or in other danger, I'm a sucker and usually bring it in. For now, I think she quite likes hanging out. And kudos to your son for picking such a great name!!

UPDATE>>>UPDATE

I now have TWO Pacific Chorus Frogs. Just took pictures and will post. One is green looks like a male, darker throat with wrinkles, and the second is the same tan/brown one that I had seen turn green, she is smaller than the male green one.
Maybe they are on their honeymoon.....

The green male's name is "Niko", and the brown female is "Pako"...named by my 4year old son Aidan.

Tonight at dusk Niko is going to try and impress Pako with how loud he can get, and he can get loud!!!

Cool names! I might need your son's help in naming one of mine-lol. Yoki has woken up my daughter at 2 AM and her bedroom is on the opposite side of the house and she always has her door closed. Plus the t.v. was on AND the neighbours dog was going. But it is an amazing sound-once you hear it, you will fall in love with these little frogs even more.
