    We used to take Jack on our trips to Wisconsin. We gave him the run of the car:

      The froggos would never do that.

          Yeah, he was. He enjoyed sitting in the sun on the back deck of the car. We got some pretty funny looks from people, I might add.

          When we'd get up there, we'd let him have the run of the place.

                LOL, yes, she has a very special interest. Her eyes tell the story.

                She's gorgeous, BTW. 😻

                          Something I've been curious about: Do you keep the froggos in the net thing for their protection, because they're not mature enough to be let outside? Or does the net thing act as a frog aquarium for you to keep them by, as pets?

                            All the above. In summer, they are in their house on the porch, and it protects them from predators. Because they've been raised in captivity, they aren't really prepared to transition to living in the yard. The frog experts say to never release pet frogs, rather to find a new owner to care for them.

                            That's why I continue to raise tadpoles in a little pond outside by the porch. I get the tadpoles from the church's retention pond across the street from my house. The retention pond dries out, so I rescue them before they would otherwise die from lack of water. Those that morph to froghood from the taddie pool are basically wild frogs, and can have better odds of making it on their own outdoors.

                            It's the best of both options. We have pets and wild ones. Hopefully, we'll have more wild frogs visit the porch this summer. I don't know if it will ever happen again, but it would be great fun. If Jurgi returns, I'll get pics. His markings are distinctive. He has a map of Italy on his back. πŸ˜€

                                    Last summer, we set up a motion detection security camera over the tadpole pool. We got to see them morph from water to air. We called it the Taddiecam.

                                    There really are no limits to crazy at our house.
