So my last post about these guys, I was having trouble getting them to eat and I had no idea why they wouldn't do so. I think that I have figured out a few reasons why. A friend of a friend that has been keeping tree frogs for about fifteen years checked out the frogs and the terrarium, and noticed a few things. One was that the frogs were very very young, and he said that the breeder never should have shipped out frogs that were so young. The second thing was that they were not all clown frogs. There were four clown frogs and two of these guys:

I have never even heard of that species before, so I didn't even notice until he pointed it out. He suggested separating them to see what would happen, and, sure enough, two days after we did that every single one of the frogs ate
Which leads me to this question: why in the world would the breeder ship these frogs together? My friend that actually owns the frogs wants to send back the Afrixalu Fornasini because, after some research, he found out they get fairly large, and he doesn't want them anymore. If he were to call the breeder, do you think they would send us two more clown frogs?
I think you should contact them and see what they will do for you. It's pretty shameful that they would sell you 4 clowns and send you 2 of the wrong frog.
