    For ABF: Eco Earth; Plantation Soil; and other shredded coco fiber is fine .
    Remember to take care of the enclosure and it will take care of your frog !​

    I buy cocofiber in bulk in 12 lb bricks. There is really no reason to use any other substrate.

    I use a flame retardant free foam by T Rex. I got the idea from the Phillpe de Vosjoli he wrote The Handbook on African Bullfrogs.
