Never seen a frog eat another frog before
. Mr & Mrs bull are huge.
Whoa! Where do you find frogs of this size? Massive!
Great photos.
Let me go on record as being completely against this practice. If other frogs are the only food you can find than so be it. Otherwise there are too many other food sources available to resort to this. I am sure you mean no malice with this post and your animals are quite beautiful, I just didn't want my silence to be misconstrued as approval. People here love frogs and seeing them harmed can be a problem for them.
I agree with Paul on this, I have to admit. I realize that in the wild frogs eat other frogs, but I would never think to feed one to my captive African Bullfrog. Both my males have reached nice sizes without having to feed them frogs. Your frogs do look impressive, but it was rather disturbing to see such pictures.
GREAT shots! Mr. Bull looks incredible. How big is he, and how long have you had him? I'm not too bothered by the Frog eat Frog pictures in all honesty. I mean, we were all warned and I'm sure we've seen pics of them eating much worse. I remember people feeding there frogs Savannah Monitors, Ball Pythons and Leopard Geckos on another site that I use to inhabit. Now that was something that was uncalled for in my eyes.
Paul and Jace, I understand your concerns. I suppose its along the same lines as posting pictures of your frog or snake eating mice on an "I love rodents" website. It is far more disturbing to me to watch videos online of people feeding live mice that fight back ferociously. No offense was meant on my part, and I'm sure the same goes for aquaplayer.
I don't care if you feed your frogs Savannah Monitors, Ball Pythons and Leopard Geckos, I'm also not not on an "I love reptiles site showing it" or defending it which apparently would bother you. It might not bother you to see a frog killed like this but it does bother others and thier opinions also matter, especially on a FROG forum.
Are you feeding wild-caught animals to your frogs? Or are your feeders captive bred and just making for an expensive meal? Are you not worried about parasites?
A varied diet is always good. What can be better nutritionally than an amphibian for another amphibian! There are no places where I am, that I am aware of, that I can buy C.B. frogs for anything but the pet trade. Looks like your male appreciates the food. He's huge!
