Default Marshal

This is Marshal (Marshy) got him yesterday. Marshy is a Tree Frog, who bark like a Jack Russell On helium! Problem is, I now have two of them, and since they are nocturnal (i think) the poor dog n cat won't get much sleep!

Origins vary, Rolf, but I think these are from North America, Asia etc. Apparently they are like a barometer... they start barking when the weather is due to change to rain! They live on insects (I feed them crickets with a little calcium). The Geko images I posted earlier eat crickets too, but are very very partial to pureed peach! and baby food.... LOL
