    Default Re: Eggy Females?

    That's horrible! D: What kind of frog did she have it happen to? I took some pics last night of one of my PTF friends (sex unknown) who is looking remarkably plump. I feed when all three frogs (in one long 20 gal reptile tank) are out and looking expectant, which happens to be every 2-3 days (I fed them Thurs night). I drop 2-3 crickets per frog all at once into the tank at opposite areas to where the frogs are sitting, then watch them go into hunt and glomb mode. I'm wondering if this one got more than his/her fair share or what... I was trying to read up on bloat but froggy seems perfectly normal other then that. The temps have been dropping a bit more inside (air conditioned apartment/getting cooler at night outside) and the humidity has dropped so I've misted more... I was just hoping some sort of reverse cycle thing hasn't started and the frog is full of eggs instead of crickets. Is that even possible to happen? I have had no one make any kind of call at all since we've had them, and these guys in the wild have a land call, "crrrrk", and I haven't heard a thing, so I'm assuming all are girls, possibly. I'll post some pics here in a sec. (Temps have been between 72-77 and humidity averages in the mid 50%s; temps last few days have been 72-73 and humidity dropped to 40%s, except for when I mist. Water is double filtered spring water, food is gut loaded crickets raised on constant feeding of regular cheerios and wheat germ- smalls which are growing into mediums, so I give less at a feeding.) Current temp was 70F and humidity was 40% so I missed and watered the plants and it's up to 60%, I adjusted the AC so it won't go under 72F, hopefully (less than this is too cold for my African violets liking).
