Hey everyone, I'm with Grettski, REAL glad ta see ya postin!! I was gonna start a new thread on frogs, but since I started this one, and it was with good wishes, decided to keep it here. BG, I'm with you about too many "happy poeple" tryin ta poke frogs. Pure exciteing, controlled folly! Once my son in law and I were out in a 10' jon boat with a gig that was way too long (I was in the back and constantly was blapped in the head), and as the beer cans mysteriously were all empty, started ta hand catch em. Surpriseingly, we caught lots (I think). The big daddy was 16 1/4". Big Pond, livin in Georga, you have a lot longer season than us Hoosiers, and should be able ta grow whoppers. Deb, you'll probably know, but I've heard that when they hibernate, their heart only beats once every 5 minutes, and that they obsorb oxygen through their skin. Dump some more info on us, I think they're very interesting. I know they ARE yummy!
Best wishes to all, Bob-O
