    Default How will i know when my Red eyed leaf frog is hungry?

    How can i tell if my RETF is hungry? I got it last week on Wednesday, it was shipped over night and i don't think it is as stressed out as it was when it got here.

    You should be feeding right now. If you have a juvenile then you should be feeding every day. Place the appropriate size dusted crickets in a glass bowl for the RE to find them. I place the bowl in just prior to turning out the lights and soon after mine wake up they start feeding. Also make sure you have a water bowl for them to soak in if they want too. Just the other day I had two soaking, one eating and the last one watching all at the same time.

    Also, keep all the lights off on the enclosure including any lighting in the room.
    The room should be very quiet too.

    The cricket bowl works great and you'll know how many he/she at.
