I have a 75 w ceramic heater for the day, and 60 w ceramic heater for night. It keeps the temps at about 84 during the day and 78 at night time. I bought a timer from Petco, it's either Zoomed or...

High temps help to promote digestion, when the temps get too low their metabolism slows down and can cause an impaction. Daytime temps can go as high as 85, so you could try raising it to 85 and see...
The strings could possibly be shed skin? Sometimes frogs shed when they get into their water dish. I think it's normal for them to feel "squishy" as well, as long as it's not too squishy if that...
I love the pretty pink flower! Is that a real plant or fake?
Thank you! Have you posted the care sheet on here yet?
I have no idea, but I would say that I do not think it was a seizure, and since you said it happened after eating my bet would be hiccups!! I have never seen a frog hiccup before but my puppy sure...
That could possibly be an infection, I would say take him to the vet. One of mine got a weird white fuzzy thing on it's head a few years ago so I took him to the vet thinking it was a fungus. The...
Sometimes when the weather changes frogs go off their food due to natural cycles in the wild. Especially because you rescued him, he may be preparing to hibernate with winter coming. This guy looks...
Hey everyone, I'm looking for a good WTF care sheet, the one posted on here says 404 error :(. I'm mainly interested in day/night temps, humidity levels, and what type of lights should be used for...
I'm sorry you lost your FBT, I recently lost one of mine too and have no idea why :(. But they really are pretty hardy animals! I can't believe yours lived that long....it must've had a water source...
In my personal experience I've found that heat lamps are way more effective for the ambient temperature of the tank than heating pads. I've noticed that heating pads stuck on the side of the tank...
I just had the craziest morning ever. I know this forum isn't checked very often but I just felt like I needed to share this story with someone! So last night before bed I checked on my FBT...
Most of the people who view these threads aren't members so they can't respond to your post. This forum isn't really very active anymore but it has a lot of great information from previous posts. ...
I don't really think many people allow their frogs to go into estivation unless they are trying to breed them. It's very difficult to care for them while they are in estivation, which is I think why...
I agree with the first post, it looks like he may have been impacted which could be why he lost so much weight and has not been eating or pooping. Superworms have a very hard exoskeleton that can...
Sorry for the late response, how is the little guy doing? He does look very plump in that picture so if he goes off food for a little while I wouldn't worry too much. Did you get him as a baby or...
What are you feeding him? Does it look like he could be bloated or possibly impacted? Has he pooped lately? If he is impacted this could be why he is refusing food and appears fat. It also could be...
What I've heard as a general rule is 10 gallons per frog, however I once had two FBTs in a 10 gallon tank and they were fine. I've now upgraded mine to a 30 gallon tank though :o
I am so heart broken today, last night at about 9:00 pm I found one of my three fire belly toads dead on his back with legs out stretched. I checked on them at about 6:00 when I got home from work,...
Mixing species is a pretty controversial topic, and the answer all depends on the person you talk to! FBTs are toxic frogs which means that they secrete toxins into their environment, so this could...
I feed mine in the enclosure. I put in a few crickets or roaches at night before bed, then whatever hasn't been eaten the next morning I take out. They're nocturnal hunters so night time is...
So you know I was just thinking about this earlier today actually. I'm a dietitian (nutritionist) and one thing that we tell patients and clients is that you shouldn't really need to take...
I would not be worried. My FBTs color fluctuates regularly, and actually they are more dark green than they are bright, I've had them for about 5 years now. It could be caused by any of the things...
I think your enclosure looks awesome! I've been wanting to do something similar with mine for a while now, just haven't gotten around to it yet. I think in a 20 gallon tank you can comfortable fit...
There’s a pretty big log cover thing in the tank that he went under when I first put him in there, but now he’s just burrowing in random spots in the tank. I read somewhere on this forum that as long...
