    It would be easier to keep a smaller container warm, but wouldn't the frogs get stressed out by being enclosed like that?

    Mine was fine, didn't even change his colors. The container was about 5 inch round and he was in a nice dark, warm, moist place.

    Excellent, we have plastic soup containers we can use that are a little bigger than that.
    Thanks

    Just back from the vet. He thinks they look a bit sluggish and there's a bit of a size difference but otherwise just fine.

    Treatment - 5 day worming treatment in a solution form, to syringe into their mouths or inject into bugs. He tried to give them the first dose today but they were being stubborn little things! Going to get some meal worms to bulk them up a bit and they'll be easy to catch too.

    He also recommended getting a UVa bulb, since apparently amphibians see in tetra-colour. They never fail to fascinate me!
