General info:
Horned frogs become rather large and come in a variety of colors, including albino. For this reason, they are one of the most popular pet frogs today. Size: Circumference up to 5".
Temperature/Humidity:
Ideal daytime temperature for horned frogs should range between 75 and 85ºF. Additionally, an undertank heater should be used on one end of the enclosure to maintain the temperature of 85ºF - 90ºF. Nighttime temperature should remain between 70ºF and 75ºF. The humidity for horned frogs should be kept at or near 80 percent.
Lighting:
Most reptiles and some amphibians require ultraviolet lighting to maintain good health. Although nocturnal (mainly active at night) frogs don't require ultraviolet lighting, if it is part of the habitat design, it is recommended for 12 hours per day. The use of a timer will assist in maintaining an accurate schedule of light periods.
Feeding/Watering:
Horned frogs do well on a diet consisting of a variety of vitamin/calcium dusted insects such as crickets, mealworms and waxworms. Some individuals will also eat earthworms and fish. Fresh clean water should always be available as well as daily misting of the enclosure. Adult horned frogs should be fed 3-4 times per week.
