LAMPANG: -- A rare golden frog born on a farm in Phrae province has become the latest excitement for locals as people travel to check out the rare animal.

The frog, who now lives in at Mai Chareontham Monastery, in Rong Khem district, was given as a gift to a famous monk that lives there after frog breeder Somchai Tapong, 53, found that one of the thousand frogs he owns is actually gold and sparkly.

Master Bapat Witthusilo, the monk who now owns the frog, said the animal is a male and it is not scared of people at all.

The frog was probably painted and his luck will probably run out when someone steps on him or when someone has an urge for stir fried frog legs and rice.

Sounds legit to me. You can see by just looking at him that he's a natural born lottery number picker.

[djlest]

Looks pretty normal to me... ive got some golden balls if you want to rub them for lottery numbers.,..

Well known fact that Golden frogs can not predict lottery numbers if their photo is taken. For some reason it destroys their powers

Ah yes that's right--- A Well Known Fact---- And it's obvious to any idiot that their powers are diminished if they are photographed

[Ulic]

Of course it can. But the real difficulty is finding someone who can properly translate Frogish.

[TKDfella]

What you have to do is to draw an hopscotch game on the ground and note the numbers that the frog hops on, add the numbers then divide by the last digit that is not zero ...bingo winning number. Ha!

[slipperylobster]

So...what happened to the flying pigs?

[klauskunkel]

Yes, it can predict the lottery numbers... for Ghana.

[carter1882]

I think that is 0-0 in the first game of the Euros. I mean farangland had that octopus a few years back....

[phantomfiddler]

Ain,t it great to be in Thailand 3rd world personified !

[Bantex]

what a cute smile, i hope the wat has a fitting habitat for him... not just a bucket.

That damn thing is drunk!

I guess that accounts for the cute smile then.

[Redline]

Someone sprayed it and will charge for the numbers. Put a little electrode on it, so it peeps

[Rykbanlor]

It's also an intelligent speaking frog. I went to visit it, asked it's views on how to make a condom more appealing to women, he said: "Rib it!". True story.

[daoyai]

Albino, recessive gene, breed him and get a few albinos, breed albinos together and get many, sell at chatuchak market, next to the albino turtles and snakes the go for a high price to collectors... you have won the lottery.

[Siamwhiteelephant]

I see the lottery numbers of superstitious fools jumping into their folly over an albino frog
