    Yes, he does look a little thin in the photo- but when I looked him over, he looked rather healthy. The larger one is much fatter, and I wonder if perhaps she just bumped him out of the way whilst hunting for her crickets. He is adorable. I want to take a picture of him right now because I can just see him peeking out from beneath his substrate. I can't sleep, I want for them to be happy in their new environment and I am jittery about anything going wrong. Does anyone know the average humidity that you should keep your WTF's at? I could really use the information. Thanks for all of the positive comments guys, it truly makes me feel great- and I have the highest hopes for my little Finnigan.

    Alright, so I had to show you the best picture I could get of Finnigan, right now. It's 2:46 am, and he's wide awake, peeking out of his substrate blanket. Such a shy little bugger- he ran right back into his burrowed area right after this pic.

    So shy and so cute. After a couple of days he may venture out a bit more.

    I certainly hope so. Haha, he's so cute. Oh- and I think that I have been newly assured of Finnigans gender. He woke me up this morning with some surprisingly loud croaks! I was startled at first because I had no idea what I was hearing. But then I recognized the sound and I became very excited- because I've wanted a boy for this exact reason! Well, I moved to get up and my bed started creaking- and he immediately stopped, so I couldn't make out who it was for sure: but I am crossing my fingers and hoping that it's Finn. I've looked up some stuff, and as far as sexing goes for White's it's obviously not easy- but I read that some traits can include a gray-ish throat (as opposed to a milky-white one), nuptial pads, sagging in the throat area, and smaller size. Finnigan is the smaller adult, he has a darker throat than the other- and it's just a little saggier. I can't wait for him to become comfortable enough to sing to me.

    Nice. Very nice. For best results of croaking leave on a "fogger" when you go to sleep on a low setting. This will get him to croak like a piggy. Oh yes I noticed this but frogs actually croak on certain schedules. The wild frogs around my area start croaking from 7 or 8pm(depends on day and whether) and go on off till 11pm. Any of my male frogs will join them at this time of day as well. So just make a notice of the frogs/toads around you that go on off making noise. Write down the hour of the day/night when they start, how long it goes on off for, when it stops. Then do the same with your frog. For the most part what I ved delt with frogs tend to sing in a certain schedule depending on the environment as well and temperatures and humidity levels and so forth.
