Re: Pacific Chorus Frog
It's great to see a care article on Pacific Chorus Frogs! I had these for years (including an old male named Igor who lived for 11+ years), and I found them to be wonderful animals! Back when I was caring for these, pesticides/herbicides were not widely used where I lived, so I mostly fed PCFs wild-caught worms/insects/spiders. Earthworms (cut to appropriate size) were the staple, even for new transformants, and then "field plankton" was used to diversify the diet. I generally don't mix species, but I had some success housing PCFs with one of the the local ambystomoids, the long-toed salamander (A. macrodactylum). The PCFs would breed fairly consistently in the presence of the salamanders, but of course, compatible sizes were important, and the salamanders needed to be well-fed or they would bite the PCFs... Anyway, great article!
