And I'm pretty sure you are right, there may be one or two of us that keep frogs here lol

The backyard safari tank was about as big as a medium kritter keeper, and it's one third land, with a plastic log, and two thirds water, which for the water to stay without leaking they had to insert a plastic piece, that had space underneath it. Every insect I put in there would either go in the water and drown, crawl underneath the lining and die, or run to the left which had another problem. The plastic that went over it, and made sure that the water area stayed, had a gap just small enough for them to fit under/get stuck and die. What happened to amp, was when we fed her, flippers and chrysoscelis in their feeding tank(a small kritter keeper) , (original names, I know) she ate a few dusted crickets, and kept jumping for about the whole 5 minuets I gave them to eat their crickets, got tired and stressed, and even more so when I put them back in the water area of the tank. When we did, she stayed in there with her legs drooping/head down, so I went and tried to get her out of the water area, but she crawled underneath the lining. I carried the thing into the bathroom to get her out(She was in my room and I didn't want the Cope's grays and the crickets to get out in my room, where I couldn't find them) And she broke either one or more of her rear vertebrae, and lost the use of her hind legs. Me and my father were considering euthanizing her, but she past away on her own either a couple days before or after thanksgiving.
