I'm sure he's very happy :)

Fuzzgig is about as big as he's gonna get, the males tend to stop growing around a year of age. The males usually get to be 4 inches long, and the females get 7 inches long.

They usually look bigger if they've eaten in the past couple days, and if they haven't *ahem* emptied their bladder in a while, they'll seem wayyy bigger. They also squish down when they dig their holes, so they'll look bigger then too.

That is such a big size discrepancy between males/females!

I had a fairly large tree frog in my garage last night. I love how their little foot pads stick to everything. He gave me a good chase but I caught him and moved him out so as not to find him desiccated like the lizards that get in there.
