Where to buy a frog?

congrats on getting your frog! I've never owned them but from what i know everything sounds great! but i did hear somewhere (i may be completely wrong) that if you're not using a UV light then you shouldn't dust with D3 because of something~ haha i forgot the rest! so you might want to research the differences between the D3 and the nonD3 to see. or I've gone crazy and just made that up!

You mean if you are using UVB lighting not to use Vitamin D3. The reason for this is because UVB radiation is used by the body to produce vitamin D3 naturaly and if you use UVB in combination with calcium dust that cont contains vitamin D3 it can cause an overload of the vitamin in the frogs system which is the same as poisoning the frog. d3 is used by the body to metabolize calcium in to the bones and for other bodily functions crutial to the health of the frog.

I hope this clearifies what Fluffy was trying to say.

Well everything is going fine but now you two just worried me :P

I do dust his crickets will powder, but i know you want to do this to keep them heathly. And its even more important when they are babies.
At least this is what i thought :O , he doesnt have a lamp or anything though, so i dont know where you got UVB lighting at. But i do have a room light so this is not a problem right?

It came from Fluffy. I was just clearifying. Nowhere did you say you were using UVB lighting. As a matter of fact you said you didn't have a light on him. That's all.
