    Ya I would have to agree that he looks nice and healthy, and by the answers you given you sound to be doing everything right. If hes eating, pooping for ya I wouldn't be to worried. It could just be his coloration.

    Well, when I first pulled him out of his tank, he looked really gray near his eyes (which he didn't look that way when I got him). I pulled him out of there and let him soak for about 20 minutes and his color came back. I was just curious if UVA can be harmful to them? Because I use a 50w UVA Bulb for his day light cycle and I want to make sure it will not burn him or anything since they have sensitive skin.

    I think his colour is just lightening up a bit because he's probably in better conditions then at the store. He was probably dark at the store because he was cold. Those 3 lines of lighter colour on his back is a pretty common markings for horned frogs. Good luck with your little eating machine.

    P.S. all my horned frogs (actually, all my frogs) have UV lights, don't worry about it unless he's like 2 inches from it. As long as you give him a good dept in the substrate, if he doesn't like the light he will dig down.
