Hello all..Here is a picture sequence showing Barning (South African Bullfrog or Pyxie frog) from a tiny froglet, about 1 inch to his current size of 7 inches. He is about 1 year old and has more growing to do..He went from the size of a quarter to the size of a cantelope in 11 months.

lol...You're right about that, anything he wants.

He was mostly raised on nightcrawlers with some crickets and mice. Now a days, he seems to only get excited about mice. He will eat crickets and night crawlers, but he is very unenthusiastic about it.

It puts me in a tough spot because a frog should not eat mice all the time. I give him about a couple of mice every 2 weeks or so with crickets in between.
