    Question ACF too old to breed?

    Recently given 3 african clawed frogs (1 female, 2 males). They were in a very small, unfiltered, unheated and I was told they haven't spawned in years. They're about 13, now living in a 30 gallon tank 7ish inches full with decor and filter, is the female no longer spawning because she is too old?

    Females will spawn until they die. How big are your females? Snout to vent

    Hello and welcome to FF! Place any frog in such bad conditions and don't be surprised if it stops breeding. If you give them the right environmental conditions and care, maybe they will go back to full health and breed .
    Remember to take care of the enclosure and it will take care of your frog !​
