Feeding

[Katie779]

Yeah he's in a 10. He doesnt look all that small compared to it, so I thought it was fine. If I should switch him to something smaller I'll definitely do that if everyone thinks I should.

Lets wait and see what everyone else thinks.

The honey bath worked like a charm! HUGE poo! I bet he feels much better now.

[danfrog]

Yeah they do!

I'm starting to get the feeling that my Mojo refuses to go poo in his enclosure. Kinda like a dog that won't go in his kennel.

[Katie779]

Not frog related, but one of my Bearded Dragons is that way. He won't go in his enclosure no matter what, only in a bath or outside in the grass. I never thought frogs could be that way too. lol

Your frog looks healthy and glad it's pooping again. Not sure; but appears few albino's have intestinal blocking issues. Do feed smaller or recently molted roaches to prevent possible impaction and do honey bath if certain frog has not pooped in over a week (be aware sometimes they bury it).

2 in. SVL Pacman can wrestle small night crawlers and take down half a large one for a meal. Mine is 3.5 in and can eat 3 large ones in one sitting. 10 gal. might be a tad big for your frog; but since it's there already and will be 3 in. in a month or so, would let it be. Good luck !

Thank you!
Sorry if this is a stupid question, but whats SVL? People keep saying that and I'm not sure what it means ( Snout to vent length is what I assumed).
I hope to get him eating mostly night crawlers, but for now he seems much more interested in dubia. Should I try crickets?

Snout to vent length?

Nose to butt

I didn't use the deli cup to feed tonight and he ate two dubia, the first on his own and the second from tongs! He's been only eating one dubia at a time for the most part so this is a huge improvement! I think that honey bath really made all the difference. I'm feeing very relieved. lol

Welcome to the fun side of animal husbandry.

[danfrog]

Good to hear!

[Katie779]

3 dubia tonight! And I moved his enclosure and swore I was going to mess him up from a change in scenery but nope! I think he's officially settled in now.

You're doing very well! Keep it up!
