African Clawed Frog (female)


Just a pic of the African Clawed Frog I got last month from the young lass who had to give her up. Hopefully she will visit my blog and see that the frog is doing quite well. Her and the male, that I already had, are living together in marital froggy bliss. I need to do a bit more research to see what triggers breeding, it would be a fun project to raise the tadpoles. I know that them being well fed is necessary, and that a good temperature drop, about 15 degrees F is required to trigger them but am not sure if there are other necessary triggers. I am also not certain she is old enough or large enough to breed just quite yet. While my guess is that she can certainly grow some before I try to breed them, I am also guessing she probably can breed already. I am in no hurry though, so I may just let her grow another inch or two before trying to get them to mate.
All the best,
Glenn B
