I was thinking my sub adult White's wasn't calling because he wasn't feeling well. I'd gotten the temperatures up to 77F at night, but the last two nights they've reached 84F and he called both times. (He also left me an enormous soft poop the first night. Maybe he was calling because he felt relieved?)

Last night Julep joined in even though he's a baby. So great, two calling frogs are going to be egging each other on.
Here's what it sounded like:

Bonk: Wok-wok-WOK-WOK-WOK-WOK-WOK!
...
Julep: wok-wok-wok?
You've joined the club!

I'm still trying to figure out my guys' calling patterns too. They call at various times during the night or day... sHEila calls when he hears me talking loud to someone in the other room, or laughing, or if I'm trying to get him to talk... though that's been harder now since he's had Honey to converse with, lol. I've heard him answer geese, and the native frogs when they were "crrrkkkk"ing under the window-- ok sHEila is going off right now...!
Wrong, sHEila's asleep, it was Honey! Temp in there right now is 77 F (typical daytime temp for them) and humidity is right around 50%. Sometimes I wonder if me typing from in here makes them start in, but I'm clear in the other room... I imagine their hearing is pretty darn good though!
