And I have seen mine grow atleast an inch or a bit over in almost a month. So I sure believe it !

I will know this time next year, LOL (hopefully)

mine was not exactly one inch or under when I got it like many of the young pyxies when sold. Mine was a bit larger, probably around 2.5 inches or so, so the growth rate is somewhat speculative (after all, that was a few years ago and I don't have charts). The point is, these frogs can sometimes grow from .25 inches to a full inch in a month, depending on temp, food, and the animal itself. Not all pyxies grow to 7 inches or 8 inches or 9 inches. Some only hit 6, and some females barely make 4 or 5. Andy
