    I used slate and pvc to hold it up and silicone on the center and back. Also smoothed the sharp area and siliconed it to prevent scratching the frogs[

    Another update! So far he is holding at 6", but has once again decided he wants to eat me out of house and home. He is just over 3.5 months now and I believe has the potential to get even larger.

    Had a problem with him becoming bloated after a mixed meal a few days ago and I promptly acted accordingly with treatment and tank cleansing. He is recovered and just as pugnatious as ever.

    What's even better about these pics is that you can clearly see his Nuptial Pads on his thumbs. A rare sight for most keepers of adspersus.

    Enjoy!

    He was eyeballing me all morning. Even yawned with his mouth completely opened twice. I never have my camera or phone when he does that. Getting some nice odontoids too.

    I'm absolutely sure it's going to get larger!

    What have you guys gotten yourself into with this baby!! This is THE male Pyxicephalus adspersus, nuptials pads included. I love seeing this thread's pics since day one and how your baby has become a mini Hulk.

    Yeah, there is definitely some contradicting posts early on about it's sex. It happens to the best of us though. It's a lot easier to tell in person than by pictures. I can't remember what thread it was on, or even how long ago it was, but someone brought up a good point. They said something to the extent of, "I can take pictures of my baby pyxie and post certain angles or certain pictures, and it does indeed appear to be a certain sex." I believe this is very true.

    Very true! Some females appear to be male at the right angle.

    Just thinking about having to carry something like that out of the tank once a month prior to the monthly cleaning makes me feel glad about paying for my health/medical insurance.
