Going Camping... What About My Frog?

[flybyferns]

I have other friends but the two that would take care of him aren't available. And I don't really want to give away my town on the internet.

Good point !
Don't know ? Sorry

Ahh, it's okay. I'll figure something out.

How long are you planning to be gone for?

Caring for a frog for a few days or even a few weeks doesn't have to be a difficult task. When I've gone away I leave simple and concise instructions for the critical tasks and lay out planned meals in different containers to make life as simple as possible for the caregiver to ensure they do what needs to be done. Pretty much anyone who can read can manage.

We're going to be gone for 5 days... I think. I understand that caring for a frog isn't rocket science and anyone can do it but I just don't know who to ask. I have prepared instructions and I am going to give them my house key so my frog can stay in my house where he's comfortable and won't get stressed. I really like your idea of laying out each meal in a little container, I'll do that.

Finally figured it out! Turns out our local pet store (family owned, not a chain) boards! And it's only 5 bucks a day!!

If you have stable humidity in the tank and hand misting is not required it shouldnt be a problem to leave the frogs on their own for those 5 days. They can manage more than that without food and i cant think of something else that is extremely necesary to be done frequently. I left mine for 6 days in the middle of july and they are perfectly fine (not retf, tho).
