Default breeding behavior in 3 month old leucs?

Well I noticed that two of my leucs are always following eachother around and now they are sitting next to eachother and one of them had his/her's hand on the others back! :shock: They are only three months old so they definitely cant breed, but does that mean that i definitely have a pair? Or are they two males like competing or something?

Froglets can tend to stick close to one another, particularly when they are introduced into a new environment. They might end up being a pair or you may see in time that they spend a lot less time together.

I've noticed that young leucs (as well as galacs) will often share the same brome axil and stick close to each other when feeding. Later, they become more independent and select separate resting spots.

Not a problem. I was confused as well when I first started seeing this type of behavior. My first thought was that I was seeing initial pairing off behavior before they were mature but that was not the case.
