Anyone know anything about getting a pet frog?

Question

Specific breeds that are good for beginners, terrestrial vs. aquatic, how to care for them, if they make good pets...anything would be appreciated.

Answer 1

I would suggest a White's Tree Frog. They are super cute. They have different skin than most frogs so they can accommodate the oils from our skin so unlike most frogs, they can be handled.

A 20g Long tank would be best or a 10g a terrestrial setup and a big water bowl for soaking. A water fixture for keeping the humidity up would be nice otherwise you'll need to spray the tank down a couple of times a day to keep it humid. You'll need a low powered spot light and if you can, a UV light. They eat crickets and worms.

Answer 2

your fire belly frogs are great for beginners they are very hearty and do great in pairs as you master that them they can be with newts , floating frogs and tree frogs. diet for the fire belly consist of crickets from a pet store , not ones from outside and meal worms on the smaller side. their enviroment should be half land half water with a small filtration system they do need heat so a basking light on the smaller wattage will do such as a 25 watt light, having places for them to hide out is good too such as fake or live plants you can get at your local pet store

Answer 3

I got a pet frog when I was 12 years old. She lived until I was 24, then I neglected her and she passed away (I ws going through a tough time then). I cried a lot. however, she lived for a long, long time and I was happy for that. This is where you can get a tadpole and raise to a frog. That's what I did with her. They have a lifetime guarantee, so if your frog dies, you can get another one for free. I liked this place a lot, you can order friends, toys, treats, and food for your frog. http://www.growafrog.com/
