Hi all,
I am thinking about growing live plants from my house (pothos) in my Pacman frog tank. As substrate , I have exo terra plantation soil and pillow moss. If I take a few clippings from my...
Hi there, So I just moved the heater to the side of the enclosure. I regularly gut load with kale, carrots, squash and lettuce. I also dust with calcium plus from repashy. The frog only shows...
Hi all,
Ive recently purchased a juvenile green pacman frog from a local pet store. I set it up in my 18x18x24 exoterra with eco earth, moss, plastic plants, water dish and a few hides. I got it...
So I picked her up to carefully examine the issue and the limb seems alright externally without any apparent damage, she actually was able to grip my finger with her injured hand so since its only...
hello all,
Lately, Ive noticed some behaviours in my toads that I feel are questionable. So one of my toads sometimes sits in a manner with her left forelimb that appears injured however she still...
Hello,
I was wondering if anyone has used squash or pumpkin guts as a gut load for their feeder insects
Thanks
This is interesting as I also rarely see my toads shed due to the fact that there mainly nocturnal but I was always under the impression that toads would eat their old skin like frogs as I have seen...
hello, yes I have recently took out the old eco earth and added new dirt and the toads are all eating.
Hi all,
I may be worrying for a non existent threat but one of my toads has shed and left what I believe to be a small piece of shed the shape of a foot in the tank. Im not sure if one of them...
Hello,
Just as a precaution I would not use freeze dried insects as food as it is not as nutritious as a live insect. the freeze dried bugs are not gut loaded and would not hold any signifiant...
Hello,
I could be wrong but it sounds like the toad is stressed from being found and placed into a bucket they usually puff up as a defense. since it is very stressed its possible it might remain...
I appreciate the reply. yeah I thought id ask if it was alright to give them the mealworms because I have been alternating their diet between the mealies and crickets and they seem to really like the...
Yeah no problem any more questions feel free to ask, If you just give them the proper care ie diet, calcium supplements , proper clean habitat then they will take care of the rest ie shedding skin....
I could be wrong but it sounds like they are just shedding their old skin. When they do this they eat their old skin and repeatedly open their mouths and which I guess kinda does look like...
Hello,
I just wanted to follow up with a question that never got answered or I was able to find online but which are better : mealworms or superworms ( I would be removing the heads off super...
Im not sure what some of the online literature is saying but I live in Canada and all I have seen is the regular subspecies of American toads and the Hudson Bay subspecies of American toad. I have...
Hello, Like the others stated, crickets are good feeders as well as the other bugs listed. I usually feed three to five of the medium to larger sized crickets as the smaller ones do not fill my...
Thanks to everybody who contributed replies to this thread. I will continue to feed with a diet comprising of crickets and and alternating feeder of either meal, horn or butter worms. I appreciate...
Hi there, My toad is just under 4 inches without legs. I am unsure of her age but I have had her since august of 2018 I dont think she's really all that old maybe 4-5 years old because she moves...
Hello all,
My large female toad who is normally calm, has been acting differently than usual. She has been trying to climb the glass walls which is unlike her regular behaviour. It usually occurs...
It sounds like a great place for amphibians populations to thrive!
Would spiders or pill bugs that I find in my basement be ok if I throw them in as I find them. If not there is a wildlife sanctuary and nature trail not too far from my house which I know has a...
all replies are greatly appreciated, I will look into these insects.
Agreed. crickets are a primary feeder as they are readily available in all pet stores in my area as well as they are easily gut loaded and provide a natural hunting oppertunity for my toads. How...
