Jo-Anna, Gerkin is a VERY handsome example!!
Thanks, Jeff!He was a rescue, and after a few months of dedicated care (and a bottomless stomach it seemed like), he cleaned up and plumped out nicely. And definitely bigger than a jar of Gherkin pickles!!

This frog is the frog that got me and a lot of other people I used to know into the hobby.

Thanks for posting everyone. Great to see so many nice pix and animals.
Goomba the frog is definitely among the top best looking pyxies. If I remember correctly it passed away at an early age.
Ya it's too bad I was hoping to see Goomba all grown up.
ROTFLMAO!!!! I was able to track 'Webster' down for a few comments about the popularity of pyxies as pets. He is still kicking!!See letter below- hopefully we will see a few of his pictures soon.
Dear Jeff,
It is my understanding that we Pyxies have always been very popular family members for humans. Our colors are quite striking, in case you haven't noticed, and our croaks darn near shake the timbers. I will have to ask my human to search for recent shots of me and send them along. I might add that we Pyxies are also very adventurous frogs. Why, just last night I decided to leave my tank and stroll through the house discovering a number of interesting things including what seems to be some sort of tree with shiny things hanging all over it. Quite fascinating I must say. However, early morning I confronted the dogs who were quite alarmed at the sight of me and made silly dog noises which alerted my humans and unfortunately they discovered me and put me back in my tank. You realize that a screen is no detriment to a wandering pyxie and a nice big log house makes an excellent access to the top. I heard my humans discussing alternatives methods to prevent my wanderings. Some things called plywood, bricks and such. (sigh) Can't a frog just have a little fun? I believe I hear dinner arriving so I shall sign off now.
Always good to hear from you.
Fondly, Webster

African Bullfrogs, Clawed Frogs, Salamanders, Newts, Bearded Dragons,
This pic was from the 2009 August photo contest from this site.
Eel Noob - yea, the monster with baby on its head is from Glades Herp. And I am sure, it was fed before the picture!!
"Don't EAT the baby!!!! " LOL
(and no one got my Webster humor.)
Here's another one of my favorites. This pic has been around forever. i don't know what species it is. I know many believe it's edulis but I don't think it's that clear cut.
