African bullfrog enclosure
Hello again! Kappas dad here, This is her enclosure. I know the doors and such are badly broke (i make sure it is not dangerous to her) etc, i plan on buying a new, maybe bigger cage this december or sooner. i believe its a 24 gallon tank. I use the blocks of coco fiber that you soak in water to form. I use peat moss but didnt properly put it in there so i have been in the process of taking it out. I plan to get a better water bowl too
Any advice would be great!
Should I be worried?
This is my buddy dumpling. He's very picky and barely eats, maybe 1 discoid roach twice a week? Should I be worried about that? I've tried crickets too with the same avail. I've tried to hand feed him, use tongs, put him in a separate container with bugs, and let him hunt for them on his own in his tank (Which I don't like doing since I can't monitor his eating). He looks healthy and in good shape. Just don't know if I should keep an eye on it or if it's something somewhat common. I also have another White Tree frog (his sister) named Eggroll. Of course she's bigger as the female and eats 6-8 roaches a week. So there's a clear difference considering appetite.
African Bullfrog help
Hello! I have had my African bullfrog Kappa for about to be a year tomorrow now. I'm 99% sure she is female, but I want some advice. Does she look good weight wise? In my opinion, I don't think she looks horrible but I know people have said that it is bad for African bullfrogs to have folds by their legs. thanks!
Tomato frogs, new habitat - would love to hear feedback and advice
Hello everyone, I’ve had these tomato frogs for over a year now. The first 2 habitats were just not ideal for this type of frog (they were always a side creature rather than the feature. So here I decided to give them a proper home. It’s a 10 gal tank and the substrate is 50/50 coconut fiber and sand. I am waiting for some springtails as my cleanup crew. I feed them 1 mealworm each every day. About 12 hours with the light on.
As this is more or less my first time with tomato frogs, I’ve just been reading on what to do. Please let me know what you think and if you have any feedback or suggestions.
Thank you in advance!
Need to Surrender
I need to surrender my two frogs. Ive tried contacting shelters and places nearby but they either dont get back to me or tell me they cant help me and suggest a list of places Ive already spoken to. I have to move tomorrow, have been trying to contact places all throughout the state for a couple months now. I finally got a response after my third try from one place a couple days ago, but when I got the text for scheduling I never got a response to my message back. I am based in Massachusetts, moving from Scituate to Worcester. I dont have my own vehicle anymore, I had to sell it after it broke down, but can make it to the cape cod area because I was offered to join a trip. My frogs are two dumpies, named Jasper & Jade. As far as I can tell they are female and adult but I never got a confirmation on either from the Petco I bought them from a couple years ago. I can no longer afford to keep them, especially now that they are starting to get sick. They have slightly cloudy eyes (the cloudiness fluctuates and sometimes almost isnt there) and sometimes their skin has like a small spot or two that doesnt shift colors with the rest of their body. They are housed together and are both showing symptoms, but Jasper seems a little worse off in terms of eye cloudiness. They are both still just as active as they were and have been eating the same. Sorry they are a little dirty in the photo, I didnt want to have them out of the tank too long since I dont handle them often and didnt want to stress them more by washing them off for the pic or something. Anyway, I need resources on what tf to do in this situation, I can’t just let them get sicker and sicker in my care. Ive also tried local facebook groups, but they have all either left my requests to collect dust or denied them for some reason
TLDR: I need resources to surrender my frogs because I can no longer care for them & they are sick. Reddit is my last ditch effort, and I am based in Massachusetts, moving from the south shore to western MA tomorrow.
Axolotl difficulté à nager
Bonjour à tous, j’aurais besoin de votre aide. Mon axolotl (environ 6 ans et demi) a un comportement inhabituel depuis quelques jours. Lorsqu’il nage, ses pattes arrière se replient vers l’avant et il a beaucoup de mal à avancer. Du coup, il reste la plupart du temps caché dans sa grotte. Quand il se déplace, il adopte parfois une position presque verticale contre la vitre. Il mange encore, mais je le trouve beaucoup moins actif.
Est-ce que quelqu’un a déjà rencontré ce problème ? Pensez-vous à une blessure, un problème neurologique, de constipation ou autre ? Tous vos conseils sont les bienvenus. Merci d’avance !
