Chacoan Horned frog

Post by morelia on Sat Mar 14 2009, 19:37

Last year I got a juvenile Chacoan Horned frog after losing an old male I had for 5 years. This is the story so far of Grump #2.....

The 'lil dude in July 2008


Living up to his name! Who says frogs don't have teeth? This one does! Not a true tooth but a small, notched extension of the lower jaw called an odontophore


Classic threat posture - facing directly forwards, open mouth, inflated lungs, ready to hop forwards


February 2009 - growing steadily and much more calm


Horned frogs are all about eating - check out that huge gob!


Pointed extension of the upper eyelid that gives the frog its common name
