so i went to reptile depot, a reptile shop about an hour from my house, its the closest we have thats not a petco or petsmart, and NOOOO retf..........i was bummed

awe, too bad.. chances are depending on your location you might have to order them. Take a look at kingsnake.com and see what you can find there, ordering them is a possibility. I dont know anything about that particular store but you dont want to purchase anything from a store that doesnt pay attention to husbandry, i know alot of pet stores down here (not the reptile ones) are terrible about keeping temps/humidity right and with these guys you really want to get nice healthy frogs. Try to make sure they dont pick them up either... if the people know anything about the frogs have them help you select one (or two or three what ever you plan to get) so you get ones that are more healthy weight wise... the place i got mine from were very knowledgable and helpful in the selection process. You can also try talking to the shop (if you trust them to keep the animals in ideal living conditions) and have them order them.

good luck!

this seems pretty legit

here are a couple more caresheets, i have always liked using more than two so i know if information is wide spread, just because one caresheet says one thing doesnt make it right kinda deal.

ok, i have one frog that looks very healthy and plump and the other one is getting a bit skinney i think. would it usually take this long fo rthem to show signs of weight loss/stress. i do not handle them but because they live in a pair i wouldnt know who was eating and who wasnt. the one is def. eating as i saw its poops below it tonight (healthier looking one) the other one however stays in the other corner and if not sleeping in the dirt hes sitting in it (sometimes attached to leaves) so its tough to see poops from it.

well retf #2 (the one who is skinnier) is awake now (i have dark light on so i can see) and watching the crickets crawling around.. both frogs are "watching" them. im curious to see them actually eat. if nothing else i put in 9 and there is no way they are getting out of the ziplock thingy with a leg missing.

I am dying to get a pair or so...I find retf so inspirational
