Can you keep a spring peeper as a pet?

Peepers are very cool pets. Outside the breeding season they are normally found under loose bark on standing trees or fallen logs. If there is a pile of old boards around in a grassy area within a few yards of water, that is a good place to look.

What temperature do spring peepers come out?

In the case of the peepers, I tried several different base temperatures, and 3 degrees C (37 degrees F) worked the best. The analysis showed that when the thermal sum, calculated starting Feb. 1 and using a base of 3 degrees C, reaches about 44 degree-days, the peepers start to call.

To make their calls, peepers close their nostrils and mouths and squeeze their lungs, which causes the vocal sac in the throat to inflate like a balloon. The peeping sound happens as air leaves the lungs, passes over the vocal cords and into the vocal sac.
