    Default Clyde Frog's growth update!

    He/she grew 1/4" since Wednesday! I know these babies grow fast but wow! He/she eats me out of house and home too, I'm scared to just let it keep eating cause I honestly think he/she would eat a ton, poop, then go straight back to eating...

    Wednesday:

    Quick update:
    He/she just ate 2 full grown nightcrawlers and is still looking/hunting for food. I usually just keep feeding until they're full but I really don't think this guy knows when he should stop... Any suggestions?

    at that size, they are growing so fast they eat anything that moves till they are stuffed. If its worms I'm feeding him, I know he wont get clogged, so I just feed and feed till he is full, then take away the leftovers They sure do eat at that size!

    He(?) eats more than my fully grown female. She can be a bit picky, 3-4 roaches every other day or so and she's full.

    His belly full of nightcrawlers :P

    anyone wanna start guessing a sex? I'd have to say male due to the head width, but there's no color's showing yet. Also, he/she grew another half inch in one weeks time.

    Very nice and healthy frog.
    Seems to be a male to me.

    I fed my Pyxie until she was 3 inches lenght 3 to 4 times per week : crickets, locusts, roaches, nightcrawlers and baby mices.
    What is important is to give various preys to bring it all it needs and don't forget also to dust with calcium 1 to 2 insects per week and with calcium + vit D3 1 insect every 2 weeks.

    I feed everyday with a lot of variety, and dust at least very other feeding with Repashy calcium plus (calcium plus multivitamin), so no worries there
    Hope you're right about him being a he!

    Don't give too much vitamins.
    Too much vitamins can bring to some diseases for amphibians.
    Especially with D3, too much D3 can damage kidneys for example.
    This is why I told you too dust with D3 only 1 or 2 insects every 2 weeks, it's enough.

    I've read in quite a few places repashy is safe for daily use, and I generally don't use it every single day. Repashy is also one of the best products out there, I've looked into them expensively before deciding to commit to quite an expensive product, you should check them out!

    I don't speak about your product.
    I speak about too much D3 for an amphibian.
    This is bad for their health, whatever the trademark of the product.

    Ask to an herpethologist or a vet, he will confirm.

    I'm just saying I don't think there's that much D3 in it to cause that much harm.

    Alright my fellow froggers! Clyde Frog just hit 4" and has officially doubled in size since I got him/her! A minuscule amount of color under the arms and calls quite yet, but he/she has quite a wide head, growing like a weed, and looks build as a tank!

    I'd say its a male now, because of the head, but not for sure.
