A baby african dwarf frog

Question

i have a baby african dwarf frog... (the large old one just passed away, so i got a new one...) this baby is only about a cm long... he wont eat anything i try to feed him... ive tried freeze dried blood worms, freeze dried brine shrimp, and flake food, but he wont eat it. i cant get to the store for a couple of weeks to buy frozen blood worms or brine shrimp, what can i feed him..(will tiny peices of frozen meat work..) any ideas would be great!!! also, should i keep him alone in his one gallon tank all to himself, or put him into a large already slightly overcrowded tank? and one last question... how long does it usually take for them to get fully grown? (my old one was two inches, but i bought him when he was fully grown...) i just want my baby froggie to be happy!! thanx in advance for any help and/or advise!!

Answer 1

You can feed him small pieces of frozen fish filet's. Is the tank cycled? Adfs will croak if the tank is not cycled hen they are put in. Also, they are very social and enjoy company. I say leave him in there and buy another one. He might not eat for e few days since you just got him, so don't worry about that! Also, if the food does not sink they will not eat it. E-mail me with any more questions!Give him a few months to get full sized.=)  

Answer 2

If it doesnt eat any food that you said you have given it , then you have to try living insects , such as crickets , or other insect ( make sure it's smaller than your frog ), And do not put it in tanks that has animals bigger than the frog , so i suggest you let it grow big enough , than you can put it in your crowed tank          

Answer 3

OK. Well you can go to growafrog.com and get food. Just wait till you get the food. He will eat. Mine did that too.Hes fine alone but on growafrog.com you can get one on the lifetime guarantee.  And get a little buddy. He will eat. It takes a couple months for mine to grow. But he is fine now. Dont worry.

GOOD LUCK!
