Hello,
I am now the proud owner of 2 beautiful juvenile snowflake white's tree frogs!! They both about 2" and are living in a 35 gallon hex bioactive vivarium. I have had them for about 2 weeks now.
My question has to do with feeding. Although I know it stresses them out a bit, I have decided to feed them in a separate enclosure. This is because I am feeding them dubias and there is no room for me to place a good heavy bowl for the frogs to feed out of (didn't think about it while building the tank) and I don't want the dubias escaping and burrowing in the substrate. Also one appears to be a decent hunter, and the other is very clumsy and misses a lot. So I want to make sure they both get enough.
So this is my question: how much is enough?? At their current size I know I should be feeding them every day or every other day. But how many dubias should they be eating in one feeding?? The dubias are about half an inch or very slightly larger. For the most part they each eat one (one time they ate more) and then it seems like they are done eating but I wonder if this is enough??
Also I do have some silkworms but I am worried they might be too big for the frogs, they have eaten some of the smaller ones (which still seem kind if big to me) with no problem but I still worry that one day one might be too much to handle and choke it.
Please let me know how much is the proper amount of them to eat in a feeding, thanks!!
