    eating his slime!!

    One of the frogs was eating what looked like slime/skin.. he just sat there and ate it as it lifted from its body.. Is that bad? I didnt stop him from doing it obviously but talk about strange!!! Do they shed too?

    Frogs shed once every few weeks. It's perfectly normal for them to shed and eat it .
