hey everyone, im new to this and also new to keeping frogs. i have got a 4ft viv set up for them, im just looking to stock the tank with frogs now, ive been told its best to get frogs from local breeders? but as i am new to all this i was wondering if anyone knew of any breeders in sheffield or the surrounding areas?
many thanks, Dan
I live in the U.S., so I can't help you with the breeders, but you really shouldn't keep frogs of different species in the same tank. What are the exact dimensions of the tank? Knowing that you can try and figure out how many of each species you can put in the tank.
amazon milk frogs are called so because of the milky toxins their skin release, please please dont mix these frogs!
right i shall not keep the milks, would i be able to keep 3 whites with 3 US green tree frogs?
its best not to keep frogs or different species together. some people claim that it isn't a problem, but other times it could kill one species of frog. Besides, when the White's are full grown they may try and eat the greens.
so now i have the hard choice of deciding which species to keep... what would you recommend?
personally, Im a white's girl all the way. I love them. They have funny personalities, and they are pretty friendly with handling.
i guess everything is pushing me towards getting whites, how many would you say i could keep?
Only get white's if YOU want to, I have just had a great experience with mine. What are the exact dimensions? If you send them in inches I can enter them in a volume converter, and the rule of thumb with frogs is ten gallon a frog.
i was originally getting whites so i think il stick with them, 42x18x28
You have a 92 gallon tank, and I know I said about 10 gallons a frog, so you could get nine, but since they are larger frogs I think seven or eight would be better in there. I am very interested to see this tank! Once you get the frogs, please post pics!
oh lovely! thanks for your help and advice, will put pics up once everything is settled
thats a nice size tank i wish i had something like that. post some pictures when its all set up! if you have any questions or need any help id be more than happy to do what i can. cant wait to see
