Chubby (Painted) Frogs (More...)

Habitat/Housing:
Successful permanent maintenance requires at least a 10 gallon aquarium. A secure screen lid is essential for proper air exchange. Live plants can be used in chubby frog enclosures to maintain humidity levels and create a natural atmosphere. Misting the habitat once or twice daily will help maintain proper humidity levels.
Substrate (Bedding):
2" to 3" inches of a Bed-A-Beast is recommended for chubby frog terrariums to maintain proper humidity levels. The substrate should be kept moist, but changed regularly to avoid bacterial growth. Responsible pet ownership begins on the trip home! For the best health and well being of your new pet, it is important to remember to take it directly home. If you have more shopping or errands to complete, consider picking up your pet last. This will ensure the animal encounters the least amount of stress possible. Have the new terrarium completely set up before bringing your new friend "home". Additionally, make sure your new family member is allowed enough time to adjust to its new home. Wait three or four days before attempting to handle your pet and always supervise children when they interact with pets.
