Ceratophrys Joazeirensis From Mike's Phat Frogs!!

Great looking frogs, Grif! Very jealous I agree, the coloring on the brown is fantastic. The green is a stunner, too.

Curious, how are these guys eating? Any different from cranwellies, or about the same?

The green is a ready eater just like most Cranwellies, but my Brown is a little skittish and won't tong feed for me. Hopefully he will come around soon. All depend on the frogs personality.

Gotcha, thanks! I was wondering because it seems like many C. cornutas and Fantasy frogs tend to be a bit more difficult to readily feed. I'm sure that's not the case for all, but seems tobe a common trend. Just wondered if Caatingas were similar, or aggressive like cranwelli.

Keep us updated on how they are growing and such!

Well Fantasies are a hybrid so many traits from a Cornuta can pass to them including finicky eating, but not all Fantasies are this way and not all Cornuta are finicky or skittish. Also Joaz are not the same species so you can't assume they will act alike. They are a true blood species not a hybrid unlike Fantasies. Most issues you read about Cornuta are because of the animal in question being Wild Caught(WC) rather than Captive Bred(CB), BUT not all WC will act the same either so you have to also realize that the experience will be different from frog to frog as in my situation with this species here. Same species, but different feeding responses.

Keep this in mind and you'll learn a lot from your experiences
