The only noise mine ever made was an extremely LOUD bark...like...ill try to spell it..*AAAAAKKKKKKKK"....it was so loud, its unmistakeable.....thats all ive heard mine do..i think its similar to a tokay gecko, idk the barking gecko...i have video taped him sheding and im going to capture his mating dance (thats weird...he just puffs up and raises up on his feet and sways from side to side.) his defense (puffs up the sizeof a soft ball and the loud barking and lunging) and him eating. I'm working on geting the footage i have on the computer.........hope any of my observations help!

Pacmans generally make a sound like "PARK, PARK, PARK" Some of them scream like a cat. If you want to hear what your frog sounds like, if it is a male just place your hand over its back as if you were going to pick it up and press or tap it lightly. Sometimes this induces them to fire off a "release call". That will give you some idea of the sound he makes.
