why is he jumpy crazy????

predator03 Mar 06, 2005 05:54 AM

my frog is very jumpy i know i got him just fri-day nite but when i move the screen or stuff out side or mist, he goes crazy and jumps around. how do i make him to get used to me. moving stuff around out and inside his tank. will he need to get used to me and trust me. someone at the pet store told me to start holding him once a week just wash my hands very good. no soap just hot hot water and then run cool water over them. but i read that causes stress right. i see some ppl on webs pages holding there frog all the time. "i know its not safe". but back to the other subject do i leave him alone in the tank for a week or tow

He is still very scared,you need to bother him as little as possible and what ever you do,don't hold him.You should only pick up a frog when you need to clean its cage.
