    Default Re: Handfeed White tree frogs everyday?

    [QUOTE=irThumper;266852]You have beautiful frogs!

    I try to get Honey to eat one every day, but sometimes he will refuse to eat anything at all for up to two days... Sometimes it takes me up to 10 minutes or more to get him to eat 1 cricket, and after he's had that he will absolutely refuse to eat a second one. This is the reason I make sure his crickets are super gut loaded on the most nutritious food and supplements possible so it's passed on to him.

    Thank you! Yes, I will try to post a thread with pictures of my babies.

    What do you use for nutritious food? I use Exo terra Calcium Powder Supplement, and Multi Vitamin Powder Supplement. Is there something better? And it is okay to use them on a regular base? (not to much?)

    Thanks!

    I dust the crickets every other feeding with Reptocal, I tried Repashy's Plus but the frogs didn't care for the fruit flavor. I feed the crickets a mixture of Fluker's high calcium dry cricket chow, Reptaboost & Waggoner's dye free fish flakes. I also add regular Cheerios to the diet once in a while, and have started adding dry tadpole food to the mix. I'm experimenting to see what the crickets thrive on and will make them more nutritious for the frogs, since they are my staple food source.
    Mom to these fine frogs!
