I have a small frog, big enough to eat small crickets, I've read that some over eat, so I was wondering how much and how often should I feed him? Thanks

How large, what species, what temp? You did not give us any info at all. Andy

I didn't give you any info because I'm not sure, she's a rescue. But the Temp is 65-75 degrees. I think it's a Christmas toad, but I'm not sure. Sry, I didn't know temperature mattered. And I said it was small, just big enough to eat crickets, is this enough info to help me? Thanks

How big are the crickets?

I'm not sure, I get them from the pet shop that has "small" and "large" I got some can o crickets for another pet and they were about that size, and the can said they were 3 week old crickets.

Hiya Frogger... The toad pic in my signature is a Christmas Toad. If your's looks like that, then that's what it is. They only get to about an inch and a half in size. There is VERY little info on them anywhere but if you like, Email me at EllasMommie@yahoo.com anytime and I can try to help you as best I can. I've two of these adorable little guys for a little over two months now and they have gotten to twice the size of what they were when we first got them. When they are little you can feed them very small or pinhead crickets... as juvis you want to feed them as much as they want to eat (mine ate about 10-15 pin heads a piece for a while) Feed them every day, every 3rd or 4th feeding dust the crickets with calcium powder. You can also offer flightless fruitflies.

If you have ANY questions please feel free to email me. I am more that happy to offer advice on what has been working for me. (I have talked with several others who haven't been able to get these little guys to live past 4 months. I'm keeping my fingers crossed) I hope that I can help you.. or even if you just want to chat about them!!! I love talking about my little Frick and Frack LOL

Chilean Christmas Toad
(B.Varigatus)

My frog doesn't look like that frog, it looks more like the one in yur signature. The one in that pic you gave me has too many red spots, and my frogs don't have those red cheeks.

and one mroe thing....my frog's skin is darker than the one in the pic.
