Greetings!

[John]

Abrahm, it's nice to see you here and thanks for the message about the tagline. How do you find keeping your little Kaloula? They seem to always be available at Petco.

[Abrahm]

The Kaloula are exceptionally easy to take care of. I understand that they are colonizing all parts of India including urban and suburban areas. They are almost bulletproof and have huge appetites. They are, unfortunately, not very interesting captives as they spend most of their lives burrowed into the substrate. I do occasionally see them out and about by night.

Oh, and their call? Horrendous. It sounds like someone butchering a live calf. I've only heard it once thankfully.

[John]

In your experience do these guys grow much beyond the size they're for sale size?

[Abrahm]

I have three of them (well technically they belong to my girlfriend) and I have not seen any real growth. All the ones I have seen at PetCo and Petsmart are also about the same size. The specimens I have seen generally tend to be about 2.5-4" SVL.

[John]

I wonder what they're like to breed. How long have you had them by the way - it would be nice to think they tame down.

[Abrahm]

One has been in our possession for a little over three years and the others about two and a half years.

Ed thought that they wouldn't be too hard to breed. I wonder if anyone would be interested in purchasing K. pulchra froglets?
