it seems to be enjoying its snack

Now with such a large meal how long can it go now without being fed again ?

During normal awake season that will last her 3-5 days....In the sleeping time of year these frogs can go for several months without food of anykind

do they always have to have a sleeping period or can you safely alter the climate so they dont have to?

Can you? Yes... But as with all seasonal sleepers, its beneficial to their overall health to let them have theyre normal cycles.

Another reason that I am afraid of frogs!!!
However she is kinda cute in a scarey way!!!

 

[Archnophil]

Candy isnt cute....Shes BEASTLY!

 

[olablane]

Beastly it is!! How big is she? I wonder if I get a small one if I would ever get over my fear. Frogs are the only thing I am afraid of. P may go shopping.

 

[Archnophil]

She is about 5" SVL now....It got her at about 2.5"...Shes about 11 months old now.

A male Pyxie will get to about 8inches long in the same amount of time if given the proper care....

You can find them for about $30 at the size of a quarter.

Pixies are MONSTERS. My pacman eats a TON. I've seen a video of a juvie pixie eat about 60 medium sized crix. These guys don't play.

Indeed...Candly eats 60-80 crix daily on cricket days...Shell pund a dozen night crawlers another day....I gave her 5 fuzzy mince one day and when she was done she STILL wanted food.
