My new frog room

[Tony]

I will be adding quite a bit to it over the next few months, but everything is set up the way I want it for now and I am loving the extra space.

[Amphibians]

Fantastic! looks great, lots of empty containers for filling.

Tony is a very respected member at TheFrog.org. Tony it is great to see you post here. If you get a chance would you post some pics of your new clutch of RedEye eggs.

Thanks everyone! Cheri, I'll try to get those pictures posted over here tonight when I get home from school.

So, in other words, you've got your hands full!! I hope to see pictures of your collection and I wish you all the best in the new arrivals and the tads/eggs. Very exciting!

Cool frog room, though the walls are a little too red for me. Awesome collection!

[Tony]

Thanks Kurt. I wasn't sure about the color but I REALLY didn't want to repaint the room. It turned out much better than I thought it would, the contrast looks pretty good in person.

Now that's what I'm talking about....those are great pictures. Please keep us posted on their development. Tony, thank you very much for joining us here...I give you a great big welcome. Please stick around.. hopefully you don't mind quirky humor and bad frog jokes.

One question: with all those beautiful colours and wonderful frogs around you, how can you leave that frog room?? I would be in there 24/7. You have an amazing collection and your pictures are beautiful. In your first batch of photos, what is the 16th frog pictured? It is absolutely gorgeous; I love the paler colour. Thank you so much for sharing.

Glad you enjoyed them, I'll definitely stick around. Here is a shot of the A. annae tads taken earlier today, the red eye tads look identical to them:

It is hard to leave, I usually get dragged out by my girlfriend. The frog giving me the Hawaiian good luck sign is a Hypsiboas calcaratus. I am trying to track down more to start a breeding project. Here are a few more shots that show his flash colors:

That is a great looking frog. I take it they are not common in the pet trade? I don't think I've seen them before.
