Dang Boxing Week sales!

Couldn't resist, yesterday I was FINALLY able to get my very first frog! I picked up a six month old Giant African Bullfrog during the Boxing Week sales at Petsmart. A fellow from my local herp group works at that store and is almost certain he is male, so I've named him Straxx. He's a good 5 or 6" now, and I'm looking forward to watching him grow! He's very happily burrowed into his substrate now, and I look forward to him discovering his "pond", as apparently he absolutely LOVED the water in his tank at the store and hardly ever left it, lol. I took a quick pic of his new home while I was setting it up, the thermometer was only in the water until I was sure it was room temperature: He's in a 10 gallon for now, but I'm working on picking up a 20 or 30 gallon right away, as I know he will outgrow the 10 gallon very quickly.

And here is Straxx himself, just a quick pic I took before I took him from his box.

Thanks, he's SUCH a glutton, lol! He never stops eating! He ate 20 large crickets yesterday, and he would have been more than happy to eat more if I'd kept offering them to him! Good thing crickets are cheap, lol!
 
Got some new Strax photos! Here are some new pics of Strax that I took while moving him into his new 25 gallon home. Look how puffed up he was in the first two pics, he was NOT happy about being moved, lol!
