Ack! Lump ate an Orange Cube

[frogmike]

Thats nothing! I had a my riding team over at my house for this big KTM Enduro event that I had going, and one idiot threw a big, still hot, chicken strip into my 7" female cranwelli pac's tank! Needles to say, she choked it down before I new what had happened. She was fat for a couple of weeks and didn't want to move til it passed.

I would have been really upset if someone did that to my frog.

Anyhow, he seems to be doing OK so far. He was calling a few hours ago, and has mostly unburied himself, so I'm just waiting for him to have orange poop.

The only thing I would suggest is not keeping live crickets in with the frog. For me part of the fun in keeping frogs is feeding and watching them eat

[Baelari]

The crickets are usually gone by morning if I throw in 2-3 extra after he seems done eating. I worry about him not getting enough to eat since he's still growing.

He pooped last night, but I didn't see any signs of the orange cube, just cricket bits. I wonder how long it takes for a typical meal to pass through a frog...

[John]

Don't fret, there's no danger.

[francofrog]

How long did it take your frog to pass the orange cube? My white's tree frog ate an orange cube earlier tonight. I accidentally dumped it into his cage along with some crickets and he ate it before I could pick it up!

[GrifTheGreat]

I've read that they can't. Digest vegetable matter but I'm not sure about fruit. I've used those cubes and they are very sof. Hell probably squish it up while shifting his belly around to move ingested food. I think you're frog is safe from it doing any harm. Learn from mistakes. We all do.
