    They are relatively easy to keep. I have been keeping a tinker reed frog and a painted reed frog for some time now and honestly they are so easy to keep. The tinker reed has been kept in a tall critter keeper style enclosure with soil, water bowl, creeper plant and a plastic plant, while the painted reed frog has been kept in a small tub with paper towel and a water bowl. These guys are not scared to take on bigger prey items, I started mine on pin heads but have moved them onto 1/4 crickets and meal worms, I also catch them may flies and moths during the rainy seasons which they love to chase down. They tend to be rather shy and timid and hide away at night, but they will take food in front of you as well.
