That leuc looks like he needs to get his tubby butt on a treadmill. Healthy looking frogs though, just watch the extra weight, most tend not to breed well if they are too overweight.

It is a very large female, who may be just about ready to breed.

Great pics bud! Have your azureus shown interest in each other? Mine will usuallly start showing subtle courtship signs like the occasional 'run up and stroke a bit' a few days before laying. If you aren't already, you could try spraying down the tank 4 or 5 times a day to get them a little 'fired up'. If all else fails, you could seperate them in a couple of 10 gallons for a week or 2 then reintroduce them back into their orginal home. They'll clearly show you that they dont like the 10 gallons but they'll get over it. This has happened to me a few times with tincs and azur's. Just a few suggestions from personal experience so it's nothing really concrete but has worked for me.

Thanks, Mine seem to show a little interest, but I have yet to catch my male calling, I hear that it is hard to do. He seems to like to hang out on top of the hut, so my guess is that he may have been calling before I came in the room. Normally the female is close by. They may still be a little young, but we will see. I can't see moving them, I think all my frogs will breed at the same time just to keep me on my toes. I'm hoping for a fun spring!
