I feed these guy every night because they are babies. But since they are so........well cubby, should I feed every other night or just them a few feeders each night. As you can see Abendnego on the right looks like he's gonna pop. I tong feed everyone a few feeders to make sure they are getting the calcium and suppliments they need, then I'll put some in the dish so they can catch them on their own. At times I have to remove Abendnego from the dish because he'll go for a second roach while he still had one in his mouth. Shadrack, the one on the right isn't as aggressive when it comes to food, but still is a good eater.
HAHAHA, to him going after a roach with one in his mouth still! I've been wondering the same thing, about how much to feed. I mean for toads, I've read 3-6 insects every other day. But I don't stick to that. I usually do a calcium dusted earthworm, followed by a regular slime worm, then the next day, or day after, some reptivited roaches. Maybe a few crickets that just won't die. With those, it's about the dusting. It does look like you exchanged your frog for a balloon tho. Long as they're poopin.
All I've noticed from heating one side of tank is that Banjo's appetite has grown. She POUNCES on worms, and anything else. But I'm still worried about her poops. Or lack thereof. Huge poops when they happen, but I wish I was finding them more. Hope the sphagnum moss the nightcrawlers live in and eat aren't constipating her or worse. So hard to know what how much to feed, when a frog never seems full or disinterested. I'm afraid to cut back too much, because, like these, even balloon frog, she needs those supplements.
