Hello, I am looking to get a frog that are easy to maintain and you don't need a license for. I am in the Melbourne area so any pet shop recommendations would be apreciated. I am pretty set on getting a spotted marsh frog, but am willing to settle for something more appealing.
Good Choices for beginners:
- Dwarf Frogs: small, active and completely aquatic, and are among the easiest of frogs to keep in captivity.
- Oriental Fire Bellied Toads: semi-terrestrial frogs that are fairly active and relatively easy to keep as pets.
- White's Tree Frog: terrestrial (tree frogs) that are docile and easy to keep, but they do tend to be fairly inactive.
- African Clawed Frogs: aquatic frogs that get quite large (be careful not to confuse young African clawed frogs with the much smaller dwarf clawed frogs). Care is not that difficult, though.
- American Green Tree Frogs: another good tree frog suitable for beginners.
- Pacman Frogs: mostly terrestrial frogs are pretty easy to care for, but get quite large and are quite sedentary.
but I am assuming you have your eyes set on the spotted marsh frog which is quite adorable. Here is a care sheet i found on them~!
