Leave him sleeping, or wake him up?

TJ is right. If the frog wants to aestavate, it is too dry. What type of cover do you have? I use a sheet of plexiglass with about 25 - 1/4 to 3/8 holes drilled in it. This helps hold the moisture in.

Female croaking? Sure it isn't a immature male.

Ya i figured it was too dry.. I think i need to buy that plexiglass cover because this screen isnt keeping the humidity in.

Well the big male makes a cow croak and the little one is like a ribbit croak. I dont think its a male because the smaller one is 2 years old and only like 4 inches. Im pretty confused about the croaking and calling.

If you are looking for a less expensive option for keeping in humidity, you can always wrap your screen cover in plastic wrap (the stuff you use in the kitchen to wrap up food). I did that to the top of my 55 gallon and it works great. You can regulate the humidity by leaving the top cracked open by varying amounts until you get it right. Just a thought.

The only problem with plastic wrap is that it can melt onto the screen lid. Plexi is the best way to go, but I use a real cheap thin plastic sheet that I bought at home depot for like $5 that works really well. And does your female make sounds when she is alone in her tank, or when you pick her up?

That is true. I don't have that problem because I don't currently use a heat light or heat emitter since my reptile room is so warm. When it cools down, I use a heat light but I can mount it under the lid since my 55 gallon tank is about 20 inches tall.

Ya i will experiment with how to keep the humidity.

The female makes little grunts by herself without me touching, but they are not deep croaks that sound like the cow the male makes.

Honestly the female looks like a minature male but the size difference is so much from my male i have to think its a female.

Ill take new pics this weekend. Thanks guys

If it's just little grunts it's not a male. Females can make grunting sounds like that. Glad I could help!
