    Default Fat frog what do I do?

    My tree frog Jojo is fat and gets to the bowl first every night and eats all the crickets. He is young (about 3-5 months). How do I feed the rest of the frogs without feeding Jojo? I only have 3 cages. One cage is for my fire bellies, one cage is to quarantine new frogs, and then my one Red Eyed Tree frog tank. I don't really want to buy a new tank for one fat frog and I don't want to starve the others, he's just too fast. I've tried every thing. Help!

    Hi Lacey. Welcome to the forum.
    If your frog is getting dangerously over weight then you may have to separate it for a while. Maybe you could post a photo so we can see how over weight your frog is. The only thing I can suggest is to feed your other frogs in another container for a while. They may find it stressful at first. Or you could take your over weight frog out just while you are feeding the others. Good luck

    Put it on a thread mill. Fatty needs to loose some pounds. Lay off that fly dessert. Lol'd anywho.

    Just cut back on feedings. Only feed every 2-3days. Some frogs can go feedings for once a week. Go for a feeding of red wrigglers. Low on fat, high on protein. Which is what he/she really needs.

    Thank you, I will probably try putting Jojo in a separate container while the others are eating until he slims down a little.
