How old do you think my frog is?

Sekoye Aug 29, 2005 11:16 PM

This is Chode, shy but fiesty. Just today he started to hop around the cage when my neice was near the glass. He's been pretty timid since I've got him. I've had him under a week now, I'd just like to get an idea of how old he is. Anyone have any ideas? He's about an inch long, and about half an inch wide.

Thanks =)

Here's another picture with a cricket for size comparison. Tiny guy =) And he ate that cricket in one bite lol

I'd say he's only a few weeks old. I wouldn't know precisely cause I don't know how big they are when they morph. But he's one tiny pac-man, and he will get BIIIIIG.

be careful with that substrate- they're very prone to impaction since they're such voracious eaters. That's how my little one died.

My best guess is that he's a few months old. Or possibly as old as six months.

I have an ornate horn frog who's only about 3/4 of an inch.
It's probably only about a month old or less. only comparison in size I can think of

Wow! He looks really cool. I wish we could get those over here in the UK.
