    Default Lost my two Red Eyes while deployed to Afghanistan!

    I lost my two buddies after deploying to Afghanistan. Everything was ok until I purchased a couple of plants from home depot for them. My wife found one dead in the water bowl, shortly thereafter the other one was found deceased. I am going to be home in April, so I will start over again and take precautions. RIP froggies!!!!

    Did they die soon after the plants were put in? It's quite common for garden centers to sell plants that have been treated with pesticides to keep them looking good for sale. It's a possible cause of the frog deaths.

    Stay safe over there!

    So sorry for the your loss. I agree with John, I beleive your frogs were most likely poisoned. That's why I have purchased all my plants from Black Jungle thus far. I figure they are safe for my frogs.

    Stay safe and thank you for your sacrifice and service.
