Awesome care guide! been looking for one of these forever!
Awesome care sheet! I was wondering if this applies to the southern leopard frogs because Rana pipens is a threatened speciese in Britsh columbia
I have a leopard frog that still has a very small portion of his tail left, but we have moved him into his new home (land/water). He seems happy, sometimes he is in on land, other times he is in the water.
My question is, when will he start eating crickets/mealworms and what size should i start him off on? I asked petco and they said judge by the distance between eyes so i bought mini meal worms, but i am afraid he wont go after them as they dont move very fast. I dont want the little guy to starve, and am getting worried.
I am a new frog mommy---help!!!
You should be good for now Rebekah, Ranidae frogs will be fairly shy at first when eating, I would try crickets over mealies because they move faster. Time will tell!
Is it possible to keep this with fire bellied toads and newts?
Unfortunately no, the frogs will eventually poison the newts.

Actually vice-versa typically, both the Leopard frogs and Fire-bellied toads are large enough to eat the newts, and Leopard frogs are large enough at adult size to take a Fire-bellied toad as well. The newts would surely take a frog down with it due to its extreme toxins it has in its skin. The newt will also need large amounts of cool water, (55-68 Fahrenheit) whearas the frogs will need more land and warmer temperatures. (70-80 Fahrenheit) All in all, that type of tank is probably one of the worst mixed species tanks that anyone's done.
