    No they can not cross breed. I'm pretty positive he is not breeding them. I really don't feel confident in giving you an exact species as they are to young. But they are not green trees.

    I sent him a message and he said he will go out to take pictures for me, so we will see if I will get a good enough picture for ID.

    this is all due to my craziness of wanting frogs in my pond and not study up on it before I order anything...if they end up to be a Cuban, I don't know what I'd do with them

    I strongly recommend you do not release these or any out of area frogs in the wild. If animals can't handle the environment they will die . And if they become an ecological problem you could create a very expensive nightmare to your fish and wildlife department and even have local endemic species threatened . Hope the goldfish did predate them and they had no chance to become froglets and survive. Some animal sellers just want to make their $$ and will do anything to move their products, beware !
    Remember to take care of the enclosure and it will take care of your frog !​

    So you agree that they are Cuban? I'm not going to release them until I'm sure of their specie, but I guess they are Cuban. I'm hoping I can find them a home somewhere, will see if the museum wants them.

    When I give them to my fish I gave a few at a time so make sure my fish got them before I gave more. I actually saw one got away but I'm sure my fish will get it before it turn into frog (the one got away is still small, no legs) but ill keep my eyes out for them, just in case.. (my pond is small, easy to see everything).

    I catched some mosquitoes and put them in their home today, hope they get some thing to eat before the mosquitoes escape . They are tiny I don't know what else I could give them! Cricket would be the same size as the frog lol.

    Baby frogs are generally fed pin head crickets or flightless fruit flies. Both can usually be found at pet shops. I know Petsmart has flightless fruit flies. However it is a starter culture and you will run out of flies quickly. You can buy larger cultures online (as well as crickets).

    You can place an ad for them on here if you want to find them a new home. There may be someone local to you interested. Or you can put up signs at your local pet shops.
