Re: Help a new frog owner out
update...sorry its been a week...I'm stuck in the house with my two boys and their fevers!
I have only been feeding Clyde by syringe once a day. He ate a waxworm once last week and we had to let the others go in the yard. I then tried some earthworms/red things (sorry I don't know the formal red earthworm term if there is one) didn't want them.
so this morning after he jumped out of my hand for the fifth time I decide to try a cricket. put it right in front of him...it hopped away but then Clyde moved to face where he went. so I figured I'd get a second one (I have them in their own container thingy in the other room) by the time I fetch another one...Clyde is clearly eating the first one. So I dropped the second one in...GULP!. I added two more crickets and left him to it. Can't find those guys...I'm assuming he ate them.
oh and his back legs are started to look like they should and he is hopping well...when he is getting away from me
finally think we have the lighting he likes...a day heat bulb...one from the pet store. 60 watt I think? and a red night blub. Stays around 78-82 all the time. foil on most of the top. I added a new plant and his water dish looks big but its barely half full. the humidity is now staying around 70ish range...a little up or a little down.
I also started using Spring Water for the spraying and his dish.
I do need to get calcium on his food now that he is eating. I have the powder stuff.
