    Default feeding bowls and soaking dishes

    Someone asked me about feeding bowls and (soaking dishes ?) for 5 red eyed tree frogs.
    This is the bottom of the enclosure - foot print 36" x 18"
    I use 3 water dishes ( planter/ saucers from Home depot )
    and 2 feeding bowls ( from Michael's craft store) to help reduce competition for food .

    The diameter of all ---- about 7"
    The rim of the feeding bowls is slightly fluted/ slanted inward / and about 3 1/2" tall.
    The crickets can't climb past the fluted edge. :d

    All ready for tonight.

    Looks great Lynn! How much food bowls would you recommend for 3 whites in one vivarium? I can probably only fit 2 but how much do you think.
    They can be aggressive eaters.

    Thanks!!!

    Really not sure David, as I have never owned Whites.
    I feed my red eyes every night.
    They have their own eating agendas they eat when they are hungry.
    Though, I am not sure you should do that for Whites?

    I thought you were feeding roaches?

    Yes, i am feeding roaches but still finding a way so they can't climb out without harming the frog as well.

    Thanks anyway. I like your set up by the way!
