Jesus. o_o
It is appropriately named, haha. Nice frog. :)
Rofl that is the cutest frog ever!! What a cute little fatty (meant in a very endearing fashion) He does look like Barney! He is a very nice specimen.
Wow! I had no idea he was so huge! But I think he looks like he has a much more complex character than Barney the dinosaur. One thing though, the way you were carrying him around, only his eyes were moving -- almost like you have a pet cartoon. Does he hop?
OK, I LOVE the expression on his face!!! The eyes are awesome! He's gorgeous, Rob.
Thanks Tora and LovelyLin : )
Hello HernandosMom lol. He does look like a cartoon doesn't he..He wasn't moving very much when I was holding him.. I had to look twice to make sure he was ok...
Hello laurarfl.. He is a big frog. He is almost 9 inches. There is one thing that is unfortunate though.. This frog will only eat mice.. As soon as he hit about 6 1/2 -7 inches. He no longer wanted nightcrawlers or crickets. Mice are a bad staple diet for frogs. Since he will only eat mice. He is not feed very often. He gets one mouse every 3 - 3 1/2 weeks. For a frog this size, that isn't much food.
Even though I did not give him many rodents when he was young..somewhere along the line, he really got a taste for them and those are the only things he sees as food. The end result may be a shortened lifespan. I would recommend for keepers who are going to keep these or any frog, to offer mice as a "once in a while" treat only. I don't know if it would matter, but it is best for the frog anyway.

p.s. This is Barney as a baby and then Barney now. He was maybe a little over 1 inch when I got him
