the same for me about feeding the adults all im feeding right now is two baby ornates i know once my big female ornate wakes up she will probably try to eat everything in sight so before i put her in the rainchamber she will be nice fully so she wont eat the male dont feed him yet wait in till tormmrow or friday

I go all over the forum, but since you haven't been on for a while that's probably why I didn't reonize the name. Pac has the right idea. Lots of humidity constant 80% if possible and let the little guy/girl calm down before you try and feed him/her in a day or 2.

Cornutas are my all time favorite types of packman frogs! you're very lucky. Any tips? everyone seems to have that part covered but my packman frog would never take roaches.. i hope yours has a better appetite than mine!

I've heard they can even handle 90%, but I don't know of any evidence that backs this info. I would suspect that its true because of how much moisture is in the Amazon Rainforest. These are one of the coolest and most interesting species of Ceratophrys.

So after reading everyone's comments about humidity I am headed to lowes and petsmart to pick up a proper heat light/fixture, temp/humidity gauge, and some vit. supplement.
I have a question about the light fixture...Do I need to get the fixture with the ceramic socket? I plan on getting a 50w tight beam spotlight bulb from petsmart.
Also are there any bulbs that I could just buy at lowes that would work as well as the ones from petsmart?

No luck with a female for sloppy yet, this cornuta I bought was with the money I had saved up for a female..so its going to be awhile before I start looking again..But I couldn't resist this frog as I have been trying to get one for 5 years.
I think tomorrow I will buy some small crickets so I do not need to use tongs or disturb him. The roaches can wait till he/she is a little bigger.
