Best beginner frogs

[Kamaria12]

Jason I still live with my parents, and my mom probably won't be open to pinkies. And I'm afraid to keep crickets long term, cause they might escape. Would there be a way to make the breeding container secure?

IMO they're pretty important to their diet, in moderation. You can get them frozen and won't take up much room in the freezer. Its not worth breeding crickets, you'll need several tanks which will need heated and there probably will be escapes. With roaches it's easier you only need one large tub with a heat mat

You could always buy crickets for the short term, though it's better to have insects on hand for emergencies. Breeding crickets is a big undertaking. Dubia roaches are better, but you might not be able to find them except through ordering online.
Wal-Marts here sometimes sell cartons of nightcrawlers. They have to go in the fridge, which your mom might not like, but otherwise they're a neat little package and they can't escape. Just check before buying to make sure they're alive. (If they aren't it will smell bad.)

Also apparently red worms/tiger worms taste bad to frogs. Mine refused to eat them.

If possible, i'd stay away from fire bellied toads until you get the correct setup and have a good understanding of water quality. They're tough but i'm sure you only want the best, I heard whites are really good for beginners.

Marinecrab I own several fishtanks so I know a thing or two about water quality, but I get your point. I am not interested in toads mostly frogs. I'll consider a tree frog but I don't know we're to get a tall tank.

They're frogs. Not toads. They're just called toads because of the bumps on their skins. They're full fledged frogs.

I know petco has a few Camelon Verticle Setups you can get for like 170 bucks, comes with the mat and a few fake branches and rope.

You can get it here for cheaper.


If you want just the cage try these

For tree frogs you don't necessarily need a vertical tank, it just needs to be roomy enough. I don't see why a vertical tank would be needed unless you're getting the absolute minimum size for the frog species in question.
