Live in New England? A deal for you.

Hmmm....would the landlord of an apartment building prefer crickets or roaches?

At least they would be quiet LOL

[DonLisk]

Ah, I wish. Fruit flies are easy as are the very small crickets but anything noisy or might invade the neighbors is going to not fly.

The viv is 18x18x24 Jenna

Well Don, it would depend on how you sell it to the landlord.

I wish I lived in New England. Not quite so hot, and adoptable frogs... I think my stepsister is visiting Vermont right now, but I don't know if she flew or drove, or if I could even talk her into carting frogs cross-country.

I can see that, The viv riding shotgun and the passengers forced in the backseat since its the only door the enclosure fits thru :-) Nice.

Hey Don!

If you don't mind holding on to them until we move then we should be good to go! We should be moving around the last weekend in August

[Jenste]

btw - - teach me what I need to know!

[DonLisk]

Sure, we can hold off and just let me know when you can take them.

There is not much to tell with these guys.
Change the water dish and clay planters pot's water daily. I rinse with very hot tap water and then refill both with treated water.
I feed them in the evening and let them hunt but you will have two and sometimes three that will sit and wait for you to hold out a cricket or two in some tongs. Sometimes I catch the tank crickets with the tongs in the morning to give them to them since they will stare you down at the door. I dust the crickets with repticalc two to three times a week and thats about it.

The tank is view-able from all sides and makes a great looking piece. But at night in a livingroom, they will chat up a storm during a movie or cut in on your conversations :-)
Oh and I clean the glass when I mist using a 6 inch squeegee.

I have live oak leaf liter in the tank and will drop in a fresh batch when you get them.
Nothing else to tell really besides they like the night light to sit under, big barometric changes make them all climb all over the tank and entertain you by trying to push the top off.
There is a video of this on YouTube under ReptilesDon Channel.

Ok, and by your signature there are two males and two unsexed frogs, correct?

What type of lighting should I pick up? Is standard aquarium lighting alright or do they need special lighting?
