New Pacific Chorus Frog photos

[lnaminneci]

It looks like I now have 2 males and 2 females!
The males have been calling everyday for the past 2 weeks, day and night. It has been raining here.
Here are some photos I took this morning of one of the males, and a female.

I didn't notice it until I downloaded the pictures, but it looks like the female has "swollen" lips. She is acting normally though. Can someone take a look and tell me what you think? Normal or not? Or just a sexy "pout"?

Its Lisa Rinna!!! That doesn't look good at all and neither does she IMHO.

LOL...I think Lisa's are natural though....

The female frog is Pako, and I have a picture of her from Sept. for comparison. Thanks for taking a look Kurt. I'll keep an eye on her, for any changes.

This morning I noticed that both females have swollen lips, but the two males do not.
Could this be because it's mating season? Is it hormonal?
Has anyone ever seen swollen lips on a frog?!!?!?

Lesley, I have not seen this in my PCFs. It doesn't appear to be irritated, I would see if it subsides. I will look through some research and see if anything comes up.

Thanks Paul, I appreciate it!

The 2 females still have big lips this morning, but eating crickets fine and acting normally. The 2 males show no signs, but croaking...

Found a thread by Kaddock back on June 14, 2010 with his Pacific Chorus frogs, and the same symptoms it seems, swollen lips.
