People and frogs

[TheBambooGoanna]

Haha yes and I don't get it. I have lots of, what many people would think of as, "weird" pets but the ones that get the most confused looks are always my frogs lol!

[AlbinoFroggy]

I get this all the time, the main one i always get is 'why frogs'. Whenever i go to the pet shop to get the food i always get asked 'is it for a lizard?' im like nope a frog I dont care though i take pride in my love for frogs!

My girlfriend hates them and always calls them "slimey". Ive showed her over and over again that they are not but, then she switches to her other complaint. " I just don't know if its gonna jump on my or not, freaks me out!" I hate preconceptions... But, it works out cuz, she wont come into my "frog room", gives me a place to be alone to think. And post on frog Forum of course. lol

haha yeah everyone says, "Why frogs?" I really do not care what people say, i just think it's a funny reaction. There was a moment i have caught my girlfriend poking at my frogs but with a piece of plastic. I was like WHAT ARE YOU DOING??? and told her not to do it again. i felt bad for my frog =/.

Most people that ask me WHY, either don't know me well or are from an older frugal generation.

My fiancée love my frogs even my big ol male pixie. She is not a fan of live feedings however.
Most girls like my pacman frogs but are very apprehensive about the bullfrog, esp when he lunges at them through the glass!

haha NICE


It's a shame how people are, with their prejudice thoughts. If you ask me though, I think compared to other animals were the strangest, weirdest, and ickyist of them all.

I used to catch frogs when i was 8 years old in the creek so its in my nature and alot of people know my love for reptiles and amphibians.

However there are alot of people who are in absolute shock when i show them that i have a bunch of fat frogs with big mouths that just sit there. They like my bearded dragons,geckos,birds, and fish more.

whenever i show people a photo of my frogs i get "thats a wierd looking frog" people who aren't into them that much seem to also think all frogs look the same! Anybody else get that? But i agree with Malachi, people who don't know me as well think its wierd, my boyfriend goes along with it because he's a big animal lover and my best friend thinks its cool and the older generation dont understand it, my grandad cant understand why a girl would love frogs liek i do. End of day its just me and my hobby
