-and this is coming from a guy who keeps noisy Solomon Island Leaf Frogs in his room!
This little peeper was photographed circa 2017, and was one of the first photos I ever took with a proper camera.

As such they do experience winters- albeit ones much milder than up here in new jersey. It wouldn't surprise to learn wild African Green Toads behave similarly- slowing down rather than truly hibernating.

They may look oddly tall now, but that's only because the soil isn't in yet!

I'd show you them in their new home, but the froglets are still so little that they simply vanished into the leaf litter. So have this shot of them in the transport cup instead.

Seems that Alexei Navalny was poisoned with a toxin called epibatidine which is obtained from the Ecuadorean dart frog Epipedobates anthonyi. Believe it or not this was a species I kept when I kept dart frogs although they aren’t poisonous when kept in captivity! #frogsky #dartfrogs #amphibiansky
That said, what happened was still an upsetting loss, and the frog room is a lot quieter without Nerves around.

itty bitty freckles on the backs of these half-inch animals. Neither Tubba nor Nerves have freckles- but Slick does. Which means he's the father of these little ones.

Back at it again with the frog art

They are leaf shaped, leaf colored, and spend much of their day hiding among leaves.
No doubt they're at their most content with easy access to them.

It also serves as a reminder- never underestimate how far a startled animal can dart!

Time to feed the Leaf Froglets!
Even at a few months old, they're still so small that fruit flies are the food of choice. Though it can't always be said that their reaction to being presented with them is immediate...

Froglets from a union between Slick and Tubba had varying amounts of freckling. Some were almost as freckled as their father, and others were only light peppered.

🐸 Practicing black pens with the agile frog (Rana dalmatina). This frog is part of the red list of endangered species in Switzerland.

No one can stop me from putting a party hat on a frog
#frogsky
I should have put party hats on them

on that note, Happy New Years eve! This is an old photo, I do not presently have any frog eggs incubating.

A look into the froglet nursery.
Month old #solomonislandleaffrog babies are as fragile as they are adorable. So for their safety, the little ones are kept in a very simple setup of moist paper towel, sphagnum moss, and fake leaves.

Recently dug up this old video I took of a coqui frog calling in Puerto Rico 🥹🥰

Looks like a warty golden mantella. Gorgeous new toad species discovered in Brazil #naturesky #frogsky #amphibians
She fits.
She sits.
Food bowls with lipped edges are nice, and do a good job at keeping mealworms from getting out. Perfectly #oliverthetoad sized to boot! The only issue is that sometimes an isopod will tumble in and also be unable to get out.

I kept and bred dart frogs for many years. The Golden Dart Frog, or Phyllobates terribilis was one of the boldest and most impressive species I had. This is a male calling for a mate. They are loud lol #naturesky #frogsky #amphibians #frogs #dartfrogs
I do genuinely worry they might vanish for a time. So every bit of genetic diversity counts!

It was time to change the paper towel in the froglet bin. Which meant corralling all these slippery little goobers into a temporary container.

A throwback to when #oliverthetoad had a Dracaena in her enclosure. She loved to nestle in between the leaves.
The plant is no longer in her enclosure because it got too big. After all, vivariums aren't static- they grow and change just like their inhabitants.
