My new tomato frogs!

[maggie]

Hi everyone! So I went to buy some crickets the other day for my pacman frog and I saw these two tomato frogs there and I fell in love with them. I went home and started to research about them and found some information on them that I thought was a good amount. I went back two days later to get one. I ended up going home with both of them because one was missing the bottom of it's front foot. I felt bad for it and didn't want to leave it behind. Does anyone have any information that I should defiantly know? Thanks for any help you can provide me

Maggie, congrats! You must be thrilled, and how nice of you to get them both!

Here's a whole section we have on Tomato frogs: Frogs & Toads - Tomato Frogs, Painted Frogs & Microhylids at FrogForum.net

You will find valuable info in some of the threads. One of our experts Kurt has four of them. He would be able to inform you more.

Congrats on the new addtions! I've always liked Tomato frogs but I don't run across them too much where I am. Hope you can post some pics soon of them!

Hi there maggie and welcome to the forum. Congrats on your new Tomato frogs.

I actually have three, one male and two females. Feel free to ask any questions.

[maggie]

I actually do have a question for you. I was up late last night writing a paper and I heard one of the frogs making a "croaking" noise and I was wondering if that meant that one is a male? It was quite loud and I wasn't sure if it was my pacman or one of the tomato frogs. Do the males only croak?

Yes, as far as I know, only the males call. Males tomato frogs are generally yellow and the females red/orange.
