So yeah i posthed this in my Intro that im a frog guy...So heres my current frogs!



This is Candy AKA Candysaurus, AKA The Gobbler. She is My 0.1 Pyxicephalus Adspersus(Giant African Bullfrog). Shes basically a 5" Sphere of frog








Next in Line is my Little Princess. This is Meatball AKA The Queen. She is My 0.1 Pyxicephalus Edulis(Dwarf African Bullfrog). Shes about 3"SVL and i dont think she'll be getting much bigger.








And Last but in no way least. LORD PORKINGTON AKA Porkchop. He is my 1.0 Pyxicephalus Adspersus(Giant African Bullfrog) Hes only about 3" SVL aswell but he will soon grow to over 8"SVL! Im hoping to mate him with Candy next year once hes all grown up.






And i not sure what you guys feelings are on the subject of live feedings, but for those of you who do enjoy watching heres a video http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=E2Xd0km0Reo



Hope you enjoy the pics. Comments welcome

-Phil.

I love spiders, snakes and lizards but those frogs scare the poo out of me!!! Now we must work on that problem!

Great looking frogs!! I'd be horrified to see two blobs like that mate.
It would be like a kinky episode of Roseanne or something!

Your frogs are so cute! How old is Candy? Just wondering how long it takes for them to get that size. She's a beauty!

They look awesome! Huge! haha. Great video too. I was watching yours and several other members' videos on there and I saw that they all feed within the cage, isn't there a chance for impaction doing that?

Only if your using the improper substrate. As youngins they tend to ingest quite a bit of the coco fibre but spit it out. As adults though they get better at avoiding it altogether and any they do eat passes with ease.

most properly hydrated and healthy animals will pass substrate with ease i mean then dont hop into a plastic box to eat in the wild
