i can't tell the difference

So the Nor Cal Dendro Society meet up in Sacremento today. I don’t think we ever met up there before, but one of the guys really wanted to have a meeting out of the Bay area and so we did. There was a pretty good turn out. Less people, but way more frogs! I mean a huge amount of frogs. More frogs than I’m used to seeing.

What’s cool about the meetings is you get to meet the people selling the frogs, talk to them about the little guys and their history. I met Jeremy from JL-exotics who used to own my Bajo. He told me how it was an excellent breeder, but unfortunately the female died. So he sold it to Josh at ToxicAddiction who was unable to find a female for it. And that’s how it came to me. This all happened in the last year.

I wish I knew about all the frogs that these guys do. So it’s good to talk about the frogs and breeding and selling and trading with them. I ended up buying some yuris from a guy named John who was pretty sure he had a sexed pair with him. He wan’t totally sure, but Jeremy agreed that they looked like a sex pair. Then the one marked Male started calling. He was the only imitator calling at the meeting. So I had to have the pair. John also had an amazing Intermedius female and I’m still considering running back and picking her up from him.

Now I’m really bad at remembering who is who and we’re still not sure if they are sexed properly, which is why I wanna get a couple more if I can. But I know the one with the line to the right is the male. He’s the one that’s calling. It’s weird how when you move them they all get excited and start calling. Then the calling goes away. At least that’s what I’ve experienced so far. Except for my nominal. He calls all the time.

Here is the female. At least we think she is. I really really hope she is. But I’ll remember which one she is because she has the line on the left. She not a whole lot fatter or anything, and she is just a hair larger than the male. So I’ll just have to wait and see if they breed. I hope they do, but I still want the other frogs I saw with some other dots on their back that I find more interesting. Basically the same I want the female I saw before of the intermedius. Oh, this is going to bug me now.
