Am I feeding him enough? Is it a him?

Oh boy...my frog is too skinny. I have 4 and one is too skinny. I always offer him several worms.

Four! You plan on breeding ,or somthing?

Heavens no, they need friends.

I got 4 as well in June (higher chance of getting a male), and ended up with 1.3. Stumpy, your frog looks pretty young, and is def small to be 4 months. Mine are about about 6 mo and the male is about 6 inches. Ive not measured him yet, just estimating.

See how your frog still has alot of mottling and a real dark dorsal stripe? Thats why I say it looks real young. Size isnt the only thing to look at here though. P. vasjoli documented a tiny little male (3 inches?) that was like 6 yrs old. Could just be a little feller.

Oh, what do you mean by 1.3? Do you also have FB's? I will check mottling and dorsal stripe except mine all look alike and I can't say that 1 even has a different pattern. I just got mine 2 months ago and they are all about 2". You must be talking about a different kind of frog maybe. Write back if you think of any more tips, thanks!

Hoppity,

People on this thread are discussing about Giant African Bullfrogs. I'm pretty sure that is what DeeDub is referring to, not Firebellies.

[Hoppity100]

I thought so, too. But frogs and toads have things in common. Thanks

Hmm I started feeding him until he is full. He eats way more than I ever would have imagined! I might go bankrupt at this rate.


Hop can you put some pictures of yours up.
