Prior to feeding, soak each pellet in pure water for about 2 seconds. Hold in feeding forceps and move from side to side just under frogs mouth. To make a mega-pellet, add 20 drops of water (using eye dropper) per pellet and compress multiple sticks in to one super-sized ball no larger than 40% of your frog’s diameter. Feed as noted above.
Body Length | Feeding intervals | Feeding Amount |
3 to 5cm (1” to 2”) | every 3 days | 1/2 to 1 pellets |
5 to 10cm (2” to 4”) | every other week | 3 to 5 pellets |
Over 10cm (4”) | every 2 weeks | 5 to 12 pellets |
∗Do not feed on consecutive days as the digestive system of Ceratophrys require interval feeding for proper assimilation.
∗Soaking the pellets for more than a few seconds will not allow them to remain intact for efficient feeding. Even if the pellet is not fully softened, digestion is not negatively impacted.
