It differs from frog to frog, but they usually will eat every night if you let them. All species will fast a little in the winter. Its only their natural reaction to the earth's climate cycle. Those two red ornates I have may be hard to come by. Especially the male because both are Samurai red ornates and the male is really rare. The green and brown ornate are not as hard to get.

Pyxies on the other hand are very VERY earger to eat just about anything including you or your hand at least. Males are easier to aquire than females so the odds are in your favor, but I wouldn't care if it were male or female. Both get to be a decent size, but you also need to realize that you are more likely to get the wrong species than the wrong gender.
