Another newbie :)

Hi Ebony, that article was fantastic. Thanks.

I'm thinking about putting pebbles (the ones for fish tanks) in the bottom of the enclosure. Is this okay? I think I read somewhere that you shouldn't use stones/pebbles that the frog could possibly eat, but the lady at the pet store said it would be okay - I'm not sure who to believe.

Also could you please tell me if he is a she??

Hi Loren...I wouldn't use small stones/pebbles. What you read was correct, frogs can accidentally consume them. If you can get a photo of the throat that would be good. How old is Freddo? I can see he/she is well fed and looks great.

These are the best photos I've been able to get of his throat so far

Im pretty sure he is a he.

I have no idea how old he is. Are you able to tell roughly from his size or any markings??

Hi Loren
Welcome to the Forum I too keep Green and Golden Bell frogs and they're wonderful pets.

To tell their sex a male will have a yellow throat and a female will have a white throat if you look at Ebony's avatar you will see the different colour throats.

I've looked at your photos and I can't really tell the throat colour if you could post a photo of the throat I'm sure Ebony will be able to tell you.

For the diet I have a woodlouse colony in the enclosure and other insects I can find. I bought some locusts off of trade me from Ebony to for a bit more of a variety. I tend to let them eat what they want and if they look a bit skinny I give that frog a locust.

Welcome to the forum everyone is friendly and gives great advice.
Thanks Luke

Im thinking maybe Male..but see if you can get a better shot of the throat because I cant be sure.
