    Default Supplement frequency for frog

    Was wondering what you guys recommend on how often you should dust the food your frog eats with calcium and vitamin powder. My frog is about 5 months old and 4 inches. I feed about 4 times a week right now and feed only worms with mouse every month or two. Is there a recommendation on frequency of supplementation based on the frog's age or size?

    Also the frog has been doing good, he's shed and the loose skin split right in half and came off easy been feeding like 4 times a week and dusting each night crawler since he tends to clean the worm with it's feet after the first bite. He eats about 3-6 worms in one day.

    For young Pacman and Pyxie frogs, I dust with a calcium supplement about every third feeding. I also dust with a vitamin and mineral supplement every third feeding (but not at the same feeding as the calcium dusting). For older Pacman and Pyxie frogs I just dust with calcium about once a week or so. I feed a good staple food (earthworms) and occasionally use cultured cockroaches and superworms.

    So my 5 month old 4 inch pacman frog classifies as an adult or still young? Sorry about sounding annoyed on my last post just thought I did something wrong with it again maybe it's just busy I don't know.
