Our Pet Frog

Fireball Froggy Grady
A couple of Fridays ago, “Spoon”, our neighbor caught and brought over frog (toad?). Spoon, his wife “T”, the boys and I all went into overdrive making a home for it. I had a cracked aquarium in the barn that couldn’t be used for fish so I grabbed that. I also had a bag of aquarium rocks, so I poured some in. Spoon grabbed some foliage and tossed it in. Spoon then went and found some crickets and other bugs to feed the frog/toad. While we were setting up his new living quarters Josh had named him/her “Fireball Froggy Grady”. He looked very red in the night light, so Fireball made sense.
We’ve been having a good time with him. We enjoy feeding him. He’s been loving the flies that we swat for him. He also enjoys crickets very much.

Do you coordinate with each other when hunting flies for Fireball? You know…a “swat” team?

LOL at Eric’s comment!
Pookie Bear catches frogs whenever she can find one and would love this. I know you buys are having a blast with Fireball.
