It's been a few weeks since my original post about their appetite, and just thought I would update.
These froglets sure can lay on the guilt trip! I felt like maybe they were getting too fat, they look like they are about to burst out of their skin after eating, so I decided maybe it was a good time to skip a day feeding them, maybe gradually get them to an every other day feeding schedule. UHHGGG!! Never mind me feeling guilty about thinking they were going to go hungry, that was the easy part. Every time I walked into the room after their normal feeding time, they were clinging to the glass looking at me!! "Uhh, hey, human girl, forget something? We want some crickets over here! Hey, how about some fruit flies then? Hey, where you going? NO!....Don't turn off the lights, you haven't fed us yet."
Ya, not fun. Not fun at all. I felt horrible. They survived of course, but I think I shaved off a year of my life by worrying about it. Anyways, I decided not to do that again. Instead, I just cut back a little and still feed them everyday. I think I'll give them a few more weeks to see if they slow down on their own. I just recently moved them up to 1/8 inch crickets which seem a lot meatier than pinheads. So, maybe when I try it again, they will feel fuller for a longer period of time. Maybe....just maybe....they won't lay on the guilt so thick.
