Intergrating Species

[Richard Hill]

Hello, recently new to the forum and I'm wanting to get more into my Amphibian species. I'm currently keeping whites tree frogs and I study animal management here in the UK so there's always places for me to find advice if needed but I was wondering if people ever integrate other species with their Amphibians? Some people always argue the fact you shouldn't keep other species together but I'm wondering if people do keep them what have you placed in the same enclosure as it?

Hello and welcome to FF ! People do keep them; but with the rare exception, mixing them usually ends bad when frogs are involved. Integrating species in an enclosure faces meeting space requirements for all frogs involved; matching activity and eating aggressiveness; dealing with individual frog toxin buildup in wet and dry areas; and matching environmental parameter needs. Even when all before mentioned challenges have been solved; you still need to get lucky and find individuals that will not stress each other out due to continual contact inside enclosure .
