I did get my white's from Petco, and I've been watching them like a hawk (I've read your story and that is a constant thought in my mind) However, my fiance and I have had a very very positive experience so far with ours, and the amphibian specialist we talked to seemed to know his stuff (from what I've read that is) The only thing I have found to be negative about the experience is the type of conditions my babies were in when we adopted them. Completely dry substrate and 17 different whites packed into a 5 gallon tank. I was appalled.

Did I say meal worms? Whoops. I meant the super worms. The soft ugly ones. LOL. I've finally figured out how to breed them- which is a relief, because shelling out a ton of money weekly for crickets has been severely affecting my wallet. I had my pinheads in a 5 gallon critter keeper, and my fully grown adults in a separate one (about 30 fully mature adults) and I provided them with moist substrate to lay eggs, and it seemed like they were. About a week after, I moved the substrate to a breeder box with an under tank heater, and within 3 days the adults were all dead and the substrate in the breeder box was moldy. I figure it was due to poor ventiliation, but its just been so frustrating.


I've been thinking of getting some flightless fruit flies- but my only thought is that my whites are not tiny like my pacific tree frogs. Will flies be big enough to satiate them?

Gizmo Name: 2015-01-03 07.40.47.jpg Views: 220 Size: 77.9 KB <- pictured here has eaten about 5 super worms or so from a bowl this morning, and has had really normal stool. She likes to sit on the budha head we got for her tank.

Sprocket Name: 2015-01-03 07.40.57.jpg Views: 204 Size: 77.4 KB <- has eaten a bit less, I think he took a worm I offered him yesterday, but I have noticed he's been poo'ing regularly as well. On the other.... yuckier side, he did happen shoot pee at me today. That was lovely. The scamp.

Fizgig, on the other hand, I havent even gotten a picture of. She doesnt want to do anything but hide in the corner of the tank where it's darkest. I figure she feels a bit more stressed than the other two.
