Pyxie Croaking

Last night my male pyxie croaked three times at 1:00 am in the morning. It was just the coolest thing to hear first hand the power of an African Bullfrog's croak.

Very cool. Congrats.

Was there anything that set him off?

I just love that sound myself! Gherkin usually makes noise once or twice a week, especially if the weather is rainy. I could listen to him all day!

It was completely quiet, he just decided to croak! I have learned that he is very weird. He just does things whenever he feels like it.

That's so cool TJ. I dont keep Pyxie's but I can relate, It's exciting and you just want them to do it again so you can sneak up and watch him. To me I feel that its also a sign that they must be happy.Yah

I hear Chubbz croak every other day. I love to hear him croak.

My male likes to croak in his sleep (seriously).

[Ebony]

awsome! my pyxie has never croked. is there a sertan age when they start croaking. he is a liitle over a year.

If it's a male, you could hear it croaking as early as 4 inches (10 cm) long, age not being very relevant. However, adults should croak quite regularly. The thing is, it's a low sound that doesn't travel very far, so he may be croaking and you've never noticed.

Well if the frog is in your room, believe me you will hear it!

thanks. i was doing mantnence on the cage and i picked him up breifly and he made a grunting sound. he stopped when i put him back in his cage . was that him/her croaking or a different sound he was making?

If it doesn't sound like the care article sound then it's not a croak.

Mine does that. That is more of an angry sound.
