Guest Posted November 14, 2007 Report Share Posted November 14, 2007 I use to have frogs great little pet. Do you cath your own bugs for them or do you buy flys for them? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Posted November 14, 2007 Report Share Posted November 14, 2007 It's tough to catch bugs in the colder seasons but well worth it when you watch them catch them. We use to have to buy bugs for the in winter but after a while we had to sell the frogs . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wilson Posted November 14, 2007 Author Report Share Posted November 14, 2007 yea he is a big frog so i hope i can teach him to eat cultured meal worms or something Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
owen Posted November 14, 2007 Report Share Posted November 14, 2007 Nice frog, if you look after it well be prepared to have it for a loooong time. I got an adult male frog when I was 8, it died when I was 26. I got an adult female when I was 11 and shes still alive today and I'm 30! btw earthworms make the best food, and are very easy to get if you have a lawn.
