Personally, I only use plastic cages as quarantine tanks until I can move them to a permanent glass enclosure. I just find glass easier to clean and provides a better view of my frogs. However, I am sure other members have and do use plastic. These frogs do like a fair amount of room, though. My one male, Yoki, is in a bachelor pad 5 gallon Exo-Terra. I plan on getting more PCF donw the road and I will have a 25 gallon tank set up with live plants, an indoor pool and driftwood. For three frogs, I would not have them in anything smaller than a 10 or 15 gallon as these guys do move around a bit and need to have a fairly good size pool to soak in every night. Your plastic cage would be good for the time being just to keep them in a smaller area to observe eating habits and overall health but I would upgrade if you can.

Male and females are very easy to tell apart. Males will have a dark, wrinkly throat (their vocal sac) while females have a white, smooth throat. As well, if you hear calling, it is definitely a male! Yoki calls throughout the day and night, but his favourite time is between 5 and 6 AM.

I have never fed Yoki worms, but as long as they were an appropriate size, I don't see why not. Worms are very high in protein. Crickets are the staple, and I give an occassional mealworm as a treat. PCF love to eat, so space out their feedings a bit. Yoki has quite the little Buddha belly and he gets fed every two-three days. Do you have calcium powder? If not, it would be a good idea to pick some up and dust the crickets you give your frogs.

Thanks for the information! I will try fixing up the plastic cage temporary and once I get some money in my hands I will go out and but a nice set up.
