What to Do If You Can No Longer
Care for Your Frog
If you are no longer able to care for your frog,
please do not release it outside.
Frogs that have been cared for in captivity all
of their lives have not really learned to survive
in the wild. They are not as aggressive as wild
frogs when seeking food and they have never
learned to defend themselves. Your frog would
probably not live long in the wild.
Instead of releasing your frog in the wild, it
would be much better to give your frog to a
friend who is willing to take care of it, or
donate it to a local school that would like to
adopt it. You can even give it to your local pet
store so they can find someone else to take
care of it.
Questions and Answers
about Planet Frog
Q: Does the Frog Farm ship
tadpoles year-round?
A: Yes. Normally, it takes about 4 to 6 weeks
to receive your tadpole(s). However, there
may be a delay in shipping if the
temperature in your area is too hot (above
80˚ F) or too cold (below 40˚ F). It is best to
send the tadpole order form any time
except during very hot or very cold
seasons.
Q: How many frogs can live on
Planet Frog?
A:
Planet Frog is designed to safely and
comfortably support no more than two
adult Leopard frogs. If you get another
type of frog from your local pet store,
Planet Frog may only have space for one
frog. Remember not
to get a frog that is
too big.
Q: Will two Leopard frogs breed
on Planet Frog?
A: No. Leopard frogs do not breed until they
are three years old. When they do breed in
the wild, they require particular
environmental cues that do not exist on
Planet Frog.
Q: How large will a Leopard frog
grow?
A: On Planet Frog, your froglet will
remain about an inch long for up to a
year. It can eventually grow to about
three inches.
Q: Is there enough space on
Planet Frog for my frogs? Is
there enough air?
A: Yes, to both questions. Planet Frog
was designed with the health and
well-being of Leopard frogs in mind.
Amphibian experts helped design
Planet Frog so that there is sufficient
space, air and water to support two
captive-bred adult Leopard frogs.
Q: What should I feed my tadpole?
A:
Leopard frog tadpoles require a
specially formulated tadpole food.
This food is included with your
tadpole. See the section entitled
“Caring for Your Tadpole” for
instructions.
Q: What should I feed my froglet
or adult frog?
A:
Frogs will eat only live insects (except
beetles and ants). It is best to feed
your frog crickets. Crickets are
available at almost any pet store. You
may also feed your frog flies, worms
or moths. See the section entitled
“Caring for Your Tadpole” for
instructions.
