    Default New WTF size difference?

    There is a glitch, you must either upload from a mobile device, photobucket or something similar.

    Unfortunately, I would have to advise against putting both frogs in the same enclosure at this time. The larger frog may bully the frog and eat all the food. I would wait until they are around the same size before housing them together.

    Sorry Frogman1031, I just added info about how I am/will be feeding them separately (as I do with all my reptiles and amphibians). So with food not being an issue do you forsee any other problems?

    I still think that adding a much larger frog to the tank will be stressful and intimidating to the existing frog. Even with food not being an issue, the smaller frog might view the larger frog as a predator, or even worse, the larger frog may view the smaller frog as prey.

    You should quarantine Pickles for a bare minimum of 30 days (90 is best!) so in that length of time hopefully Quibbit will add some size. 30 gallons min is what is recommended for a pair of WTFS-- 20 gal for the first frog and 10 gal for the additional frog.
    Mom to these fine frogs!

    Quarantine and always house WTFs of various sizes separately, they can and will mistake the smaller frogs for food and eat them.
