They grow up so fast

Anyone else think he's going to sneak out of that canister while I'm at work?

He's not out of the cup, but, he is out of the water. Just hanging out in the cup, stuck on the side of it. :mrgreen:

...couple days now....maybe 2-3 !

EXCITING!!! I enjoy following the progress on this tad Smile

Tail is almost completely gone. Here are some pics of him climbing up the inside of his cup (cup is almost 90 degree angle), out of the water. Also a pic of a few springtails for his breakfast, as I expect him to be out of that thing before I get up in the morning. :mrgreen:

yep...he's almost out. They take a day or 2 to eat as well....so don't be scared that he isn't chowing springs right away.

Does this count? He's been OOW since yesterday morning but not OOC (out of can Tongue

). Look at his fat tummy. I'm thinking he's figured out that the ffs will come to him. :mrgreen:

Very happy to see him hanging out, upside down. Means his front legs must be good, right?
He really is beautiful. Love his pattern, and from solid parents.

Yep...he looks good and strong.

My "solids" throw a speckled froglet every now and again. They are variable.

COOL !

AWESOMENESS!!

frogface · 03-31-2011, 08:21 PM

He was still hanging out in that can this morning. I couldn't stand it any more so I tipped it to a full horizontal orientation. Tonight, when I got home from work, I found him climbing around on a brom. O M G, what a feeling to see your first pumilio froglet climbing around, being a frog. I am so in love with this little creature. Big Grin

I'm going to try to get a cool in viv pic of him. He's so beautiful

dtfleming · 03-31-2011, 08:31 PM

Very cool, congrats

frogface · 03-31-2011, 09:42 PM

Here's a pic of froglet in brom. Not a great pic but I was too excited to wait until he was doing something cute, lol.

beautiful little froglet! Congrats

BcsTx · 04-01-2011, 11:39 PM

Congrats Hun!
Like Christmas huh? Smile

Love the pums.

frogface · 04-07-2011, 08:57 PM

This little guy doesn't seem to know that he's supposed to be afraid of me :lol:

Phil, you are truly a god for giving me the perfect frog mate . This has just been so great :mrgreen:

Some updated pics. Hard to get a good shot of him because he's so tiny and I don't have a good camera. Also, lots of green stuff growing on the tank walls. He looks good, right? Seems to be keeping up his weight, right?

***Philsuma*** · 04-07-2011, 09:20 PM

cool !

You have enough sprintails and runty wingless melanos right ?

I'd keep him in the parental viv for a long while.....much safer.

frogface · 04-07-2011, 09:32 PM

Yes, lots of springs and runty melanos. They aren't wingless :|

He looks like he's getting enough to eat, though, right? I've seen him stalking the flies. I'll keep a closer eye next feeding to see if he is eating them.
