    Default When is a southern leopard frog considered an adult

    I've been helping my girlfriend take care of her frog shes got everything take care of, however we're unsure how much to feed the frog because we keep seeing differences in feeding schedules between juveniles and adult frogs. When is a frog considered an adult? (also the frog is a bit obese now, do we just feed him less?) any help would be great!

    Hello and welcome to FF! Frogs are considered adults when they can reproduce and "full grown" when they grow no more. Can see some pics of healthy Leopards in here: Frog Forum - Leopard Frog Care - Rana pipiens (Schreber, 1782) and R. sphenocephala (1886). Please post a pic of your fatty so we can see if need to diet. Thank you !
    Remember to take care of the enclosure and it will take care of your frog !​
