Re: Meet my fire bellied toads!

Hi Kay - I feed them live crickets (i'm a bit of a wimp over it) - a white tree frog sounds soo cute! Have you any pics of Freddy?

Vixenelite - i have 4 of the frogs. Paul, John, Ringo and George.

Jo - they certainly are the strangest pets i've had. I must admit i was a reluctant owner and really didnt want them but now they've been here a week, i love them to bits! I just hope i can get used to the live feedings.

Re: Meet my fire bellied toads!

Kay - a cricket keeper sounds like a brill idea! Where did you get it?

I'd heard worms were bad for frogs due to the shells or something that might be present in the bellies of the worms? Maybe i'm mistaken? I'll try to find the article.

I used photobucket to put the pics up. Hope that helps?

Re: Meet my fire bellied toads!

i got the "cricket keeper" from local pet shop, it cost bout £10 but well worth it. i also put cucumber in for crickets and a few cat biscuits.
I get freddys food from an exotic pet shop, he eats standard browns, aparrantly blacks are harder to digest!
Wax worms can be fattening, so must be fed as a treat, i keep them in the fridge to slow them down from turning into moths too quick, the shop is really good and will give me half a tub of grus as i only have 1 frog, and they dont keep too long.
the shop gave me a few meal worms to ty, as they are a specialist shop i trust their advice.
