Default Look what tried to come home with me

We have been having a lot of rain (starting to wonder if I should be building an Arc rather than a new crawler) lately so all the frogs from the nature wetland preserve have ventured into the neighborhood. These little guys are about an inch long in the body and maybe weigh an ounce. My girls (3 and 5) thought he was really cool and named him "Froggy." (guess it could be a her...?) (new camera, thought I would share)

Yeah, we have a frog that is in our yard sometimes. When I water the front flowerbeds it comes onto our front porch. It is smaller than a dime...

So you think 6 per front tire and 4 per rear would work well on my 2.2 AX-10 FatDog?

It should but you would have to rename it to "FatFrog" :-P

Hard to tell in the pic but it looks like he has thumbs. In some species of frogs the males will have thumbs on their fore limbs.

Yep, the males will have thumbs so they can hold onto the females.

My best friend bred poison dart frogs for a few years. I got to take care of them for a while and learned a lot about frogs.
