Hi guys

I am hoping you might be able to suggest something

My brother is at uni and wanted a free frog for his room, He has spoken to his house mates and they dont want live food in the house at all lol.

Can you guys suggest a little critter that doesnt feed on live food and is fairly easy to keep.

Thanks in Advance

Peewee

Corn snake.
They don't eat live food. Just dead mice that you can keep in the freezer. Just the job

If he's set on a frog then Xenopus or Hymenochirus spring to mind, they can be fed a diet of pellets & frozen fish foods.
