Default Introducing RIA the AFRICAN BULLFROG

I'd like to introduce you all to one of my latest additions!!

This is RIA and she's my new african bullfrog......Ive kept fire bellied toads and white tree frogs before but this is my first bullfrog and IMO she is the fabest of all the frogs and toads....

She is very happy to sit in your hands and im hoping I can start her on hand feeding...( i much prefer hand feeding my reps where possible as i can keep a good eye on how much they are eating)

Anyway here she is!



Oh and she LOVES digging and burying!!! lmao

excellent pic! and very nice bullfrog! i would be a bit wary of handling too much though as the oils in our skin can be very harmful to amphibians....not saying you do but just the impression i got and i can tell my eldest Daughter she shares her name with a frog...im sure she will be impressed!

ty!!! yes i did read about the oils in our skin and tend to keep handling her to a minimum....luckily she's in a large enough viv to be able to hand feed her in the tank so no worries there!! lol

Nice frog.
I would be careful hand feeding her, she won't distinguish between your fingers and the food you are holding. I have been tagged by my dwarf and it hurt.
