Just a thought. Let us know the results.

    My thoughts exactly. He croaks during the summer, and he maintains weight, so I am happy with his status. At nearly 700 grams, he is still a whopper of a frog, even though not a record for his species. It would be interesting to see wild growth rates.

    I have been wondering that myself. I have had my White's for four years now and they are not very big. My red-eyes grow like weeds, full grown in just over a year.
    It is a little cooler in the living room, where they live and it is much warmer upstairs, where the red-eyes live. Maybe that is the factor.
