I handel my whites from time to time with gloves. But it depends on the frog i think. My other frogs hate it so i leave them be uless i have to handel them.

I have only handled Fred three times, once to put him in his cage, once to take him out to clean and the third time to put him back in.

There is no excuse to handle red eyes unless you have to especially knowing the damage that can be caused.

I knew when I got them they were fragile and a look dont touch pet...if you want a cuddle, buy a dog!

I only if essential and then i wear gloves.

I think some people have got the hole frogs and handling this very wrong.

they dont like being handled, its dangerous for them to be handled, and they deffo dont chill on ya finger

Frogs really dont enjoy being handled, I only ever handle them if when I need to change the substrate or do maintanance, and that only the large frogs and toad, the darts and I scoop up in a plastic cup. Always thoroughly wash my hands before though as I smoke.
