Congrats! FBT's were my first frogs as well. They are great fun to watch and easy to care for. Have fun with them. Hope to see some pics of your enclosure soon.

thanx and they are awesome..After I put them in I gave them some crickets and they really went at them so I dont know when the pet shop fed them last.
but here they are

You'll find that FBT's always act like their starving. They're just trying to fool you. My two are called Sharkey and Sharkette because they have such a hardy appetite.

lol I see. I dont know what sex mine are right now. I asked the guy at the store to get a male and female an he was like you cant really tell an im like ive done my research and you should be able to tell but I didnt feel like arguing with him and I really dont like the guy because the first time I went the frigs he gave me was barely moving and before I can get home they were dead and it was like a 100 degrees and he just put a damp paper towel in there with him I was mad because they said since we were in the car and they cant prove it died because of them that it was my fault but I just went on an got two more and told him to add a lil more water but the second pair were more lively then the first so i belive the first two were sick or somethin...

Congrats on the new additions! These toads can be rather hard to sex, but as long as they are healthy and eating, they will give you many years of enjoyment and entertainment! Just a warning though-they are like Pringles...you can never have just one...or two....or even five. I am up to 9. And counting. Have fun!
