What is better for my bullfrog locusts or crickets? And what are better brown or black crickets?
Locust are fattier and brown and black crickets make no difference but I'd feed black as they get bigger
I'm pretty annoyed because he has completely gone off nightcrawlers. Is there any way to make them more appealing or could I starve him a couple of days so he has to eat them?
Lol!! Some days they will want to eat everyday and they will also refuse food sometimes(rarely), but just feed how much he wants in a single feeding then skip a day or two, even three then offer the Night Crawlers. Watch your fingers because the hungrier the frog the more chance of being bitten.
The reason that I have been feeding daily is because I read somewhere that skipping feeding days means they wont grow as big or can even stunt their growth. I assumed this isn't true but just wanted to be on the safe side and feed him all the time. What's your view on this?
I also feed him other stuff like waxworms, beetle grubs and cockroaches. Its unreal how fast he goes at madagascar hissing roaches. They must be really tasty. I think he likes large prey items the most.
He ate some earthworms.
Today at the pet store the guy there gave me 2 chicks for the price of 1 but my mum says i cant keep them in the fridge because she thinks its gross. Do you think it will matter if I give him both as long as I wait till next month to give him any more vertebrate food?
Tell your Mom I've kept frozen feeder fish, krill, mussels, clams, bloodworms in my freezer and live black worms in the refrigerator side for decades and never had a problem. Also, keeo my NCs in the vegetable bin right next to my potatoes, onions and carrots ! What you can do is get some black or solid color plastic containers and place frozen prey inside. That way she won't see them and it won't be gross ! Do tell her first, I have the strange ability to drive women crazy, and don't want you in trouble !
Remember to take care of the enclosure and it will take care of your frog !
Also this will be his first ever chick. I don't think it's necessary but do you dust chicks, mice etc?
Anyone know the nutritional value of a chick?
