Frogs!?

Oh My! Frogs? No way?!

Well, the other day Jay went shopping for food and the like when my parents called him I think to ask him a question. He said he was out shopping.... wellll noone would ever guess that he was shopping for a little creature for me =)

Sunday after I got off work we went and got our supplies for the frog... the tank, the light, the heater, moss, the soil type thing... Oh yah! And the pond and bark. We sat up the tank and later that evening before Petco closed we bought our Tomato Frog. You can find out more information about them and other frogs here: The Frog.

We haven't got a name for him just -YET-, but we're thinking of Pesto 'Mareavus' Ragu. Mareavus is a inside name off of our WoW guild online. We thought of naming him around a Tomato product, even though Pesto isn't a product of a tomato sauce, we still find it hilarious.

Here are our pictures from the first night of having him up. Sorry for the blurry-ness, it's just that we're unsure if the flash will blind the frog. He's about 3-4 months old. I shouldn't call him a 'he' just yet, as we're uncertain of the gender. We'll know when he reaches adult hood next year. The male frog sings at night, and the female frog does not. I am hoping I have a male one =) Our little guy will have a playmate soon, just not anytime soon.

They're nocturnal so it may be difficult to take pictures of him during the day, as they stay burial most of the day and come out at night. However, all day today it was out very early, not sure why... But he is fine and still living :D

Anyway, pictures:

Say Hi!!!





I, among some, agree this is a excellent picture of him, if I do say so myself!





Happy Froggie!!!
