Tong Feeding 101... new tiny Froglets

[dpcsquid]

If the frog is an adult there is no need to just feed worm pieces. Feed whole worms and it will be less likely to bite the tongs. Now it will still happen occasionally so when it does just gently wiggle them out of the frogs mouth. With a frog that bites the tongs often you're going to want to buy rubber tipped tongs so the frog doesn't harm its jaws.

Some nightcrawlers are just to huge, I didn't know if it would be okay to give a whole one to them, so I was cutting them in half and he still gets really anxious. He's just a pig.

I feed most that are 3" whole worms and I have some tricks to lessen the frog getting the tongs, like holding the worm to form a loop and angling the tips of the tong down and way from the frog.. We'll do a video tomorrow to better illustrate it for you

Thanks! I really appreciate it! Take your time, though. You should be resting if you have a sinus infection. :C
