That is a huge frog! How big is your enclosure? I'm a little concerned because I saw someone recommending a 100 gallon tank. I live in Manhattan and that's impossible. I may have been unprepared for this commitment.

Also...the pet store near my work does not possess any more live crickets. Slurms still has some left over from the weekend and I dropped in a few worms (all that were left alive in the can of '100' worms). Do you raise your own food?

Anyway, they're nice looking animals. I might have an affection growing for them; the frogs I've seen in photos see proud and maybe a little regal.
My Bully is in a 55 gallon tank currently. I am looking into getting him a 110. They can live in a 55, though its a bit small for an adult. If you have a good filter for the water, it should be okay. She should have a nice swimming pond. My tank is 75% pond and has an elevated side area for him to come out on.

I buy my crickets from the local pet store. You can buy crickets online if you'd like and they'll ship them to you, but earthworms/night crawlers are actually a great food for them. You'll need the calcium with vitamin D3 and multivitamin powder though. You should lightly dust every other feeding with the calcium and one day a week with the mvi. do not use the calcium and mvi on the same days. You can buy it online or in the reptile area of a pet store. Walmart sells worms...be sure the worms do not have and added dyes or scents added to them or they could poison your frog. I do raise and feed mine dubia roaches also. I feed him the soft, freshly shed ones. He loves them. They are his favorite.

They are pretty awesome! I love the speed and strength in them. So strong, yet smooth swimmers. Mine dives off his waterfall and rock cave and then glides across the whole pond. He's funny! After he realized he was safe in there, he started coming to the front glass and now watches is and the cats. He waits for his dinner on his rock cave. I never feed him over the gravel or near the plants. They are aggressive eaters and could accidentally eat any gravel, moss, or loose plants. I feed him on his rock where he can easily grab his food. He sits and looks at his rock every evening .

Yours is so cute! About how long would you estimate her to be?
