    The one on the left (and the middle) is the fat one, obviously, and the one on the right is the normal one? 3 of the frogs look like the fat one. The one in the picture (on the left) is about 6 years old and has looked like that for several years. The other 2 are just like her and seem perfectly healthy except for their size. So-o-o-o, what do you think? How do I put the fatties on a diet, or so I need to, and keep the little one from starving? Any advice is appreciated! Thanks!

    As you acknowledged in your post at http://www.frogforum.net/aquatic-cla...exing-adf.html , the plump appearance of your frogs is most likely attributable to the fact that they're egg-laden females. I've had some females in the past that were almost as broad as they were long.

    It is a relief to hear that! Thank you for responding! I have one fat cat and two thin ones so I have to monitor all feeding times to make make sure they all get their allotted amount. I was afraid I would have to do that with the frogs as well - what a nightmare that would be!
