How To Assist Feed Frogs And Toads - Benjamin's Exotics

[@hollymollyann]

Great video! Exactly what I was looking for. I found a blind toad that looked like he escaped an attack from another animal. He is healing but won't eat because he is not sure what is touching him. I've raised many animals and nursed some back to health. Those are usually mammals or birds but amphibians are way different.

[@BlueTrane2028]

Thank you! Had experienced amphibian pet sitter that I trust watch my tree frog. No changes to enclosure, my tree frog shed well over two weeks ago. Stopped eating while I was on a trip. Called an exotics Vet for help, would have been an expensive emergency Vet visit. Cut my trip short by three days, thankfully found this vid, and saved the expense.

Same,, my tree frog is skin and bones while his sibling is virtually looking obese,,, he doesn't seem to have the energy to hunt his prey so I removed the hind legs of little crickets and crushed it head,,,, I placed the cricket on top of the edge of the card, I held the frog down then gently swiped the card in its mouth till its open then slid the cricket in ... He did swallow it,,, and Im still hoping for the best by now

[@sweetgothevo5897]

I rescued a toad with a broken arm, he really looked like he wasn't going to make it through the night, but he did, & was picking up really well through the day. However he wasn't eating, which got me worried sick about him. Instead of googling how long a toad can go without food, I instead made the rooky mistake of looking up stuff like this, (watched 3 different vids) as good as the vids are, I don't recall anyone saying how long a toad can go without food, if I'd have known they could go without food for about 2-3 weeks, I wouldn't have disturbed the little fella to try to assist feed him. Sadly he died last night on his second night. It was my rooky mistake, but a useful learning curve. ( RIP little buddy)💚🐸💚💐

where’d you get the rubber part from?

[@abbiejohnson]

I recently got 2 baby chubby frogs about a week ago. I’ve fed regularly (every other day) but I don’t see them eating any of the food. I’ve provided dried grasshoppers, dried and alive crickets, and dried mealworms and they haven’t taken any of it. I’m getting a little bit worried because they keep refusing food. I know it can be stress from a new environment and all of that but im just wondering how long will it take for them to finally eat something?

[@BenjaminsExotics]

@Abbie Johnson, Almost all frogs are attracted to movement and won't accept dead insect feeders. Plus dried insects have greatly diminished nutritional value when compared to normal live feeders. I'd put in about two dozen appropriately sized crickets and count how many are left after a few days. Chubby Frogs are normally great eaters, but quite shy and don't really like to be watched at first.

[@abbiejohnson]

@@BenjaminsExotics oh okay, I’ll try more live food. Thank you so much!

[@BenjaminsExotics]

@Infinity 718, I would try a different feeder, something more active and softer bodied like crickets or red runner roaches. I would also recommend getting some Vitamin A into his diet with Repashy Vitamin A Plus if you don't have this supplement already.

@Joy-k4y, It depends on their size, if they are really tiny babies I wouldn't recommend it. The chances of damaging them when they are that small is too high to be worth the effort in my opinion.

[@GabrielleBraswell]

How long should I assist feed a white's tree frog . He was very sick with red legg but is recovering very well I've been assist feeding him for about two days. How much longer would you suggest

[@Holypikemanz]

@Benjamin's Exotics Captured some american toads, i think are both female (chin same color as belly, no chirping). One seems very stressed and doesnt leave the toad house I made for her, unless its night time and I have a blanket over the large bin I have them in (coir for ground). Is there a way to build comfort with the toads, other than time and being gentle with them? They are both eating and have easy access to filtered water. Is there some kind of entertainment or exercise for toads? like the toad version of a hamster wheel?

[@jshparker2801]

Hey there. I rescued an american toad too. Mine's a male. coconut coir is great, my toad seems to absolutely love it. Just make sure to keep it moist. I spray mine with a spray bottle every day (it's okay if you miss a day or two). One thing I've noticed is that they really want places to hide. Not just to burrow in the coir. If you can put some things like dry leaves, small branches, or things like that, it may help them feel more comfortable. Toads are pretty much the definition of chill. They don't do a whole lot, and they're not the most active animals. But my toad will sometimes go into what I call his 'hunter mode', when he'll see a mealworm that's crawling away and his vision is locked onto it, and he'll bend down and stalk it, wait for the right time and position, then strike. lol. It's pretty cute, imo. He also seems to love crickets. I personally don't enjoy crickets... But yeah, if you have an enclosure where the crickets won't escape, that might get your toads excited, possibly. Yeah... As far as 'entertainment' goes, I really think just having enough hiding places, and giving them varied food options is pretty much all they could ever ask for. :) good luck!

[@Holypikemanz]

@@jshparker2801 was going to order them each a male counterpart, ive got an american toad and a southern toad, females as I said. I guess online businesses dont ship in the winter (oct-january?) time because it might hurt the animal? local pet stores dont have any of the that type. I made them a little swimming pool (not too deep) and two soap dishes with filtered water, 4 upside down flower pots with an entrance hole burned into them.

[@wolf-kissedrosie69]

My toad is a lot smaller than that. I have an American toadlet and the only thing Roach will is are ants. The ants are really easy to collect in my yard thanks to my dogs bone, and Roach will eat them on their own but I'm worried because winter is coming soon and I'll have to switch to buying the food. I have heard that Pinhead crickets and wingless fruit flies are really small but I don't wanna get them if Roach won't eat them. I feed Roach every other day or every 2 days and they eat all the ants I provide. Little piggy. I have tried other bugs that were Roach's size and Roach should have been able to eat but Roach either ignores them or tries for them and then spits them out. Like baby pill bugs. Spits them right out. I've never had such a picky American toad before. Is it because of Roach being small? Roach is going on their first winter I believe. It was originally a wild toad and I caught it a few weeks ago. I will probably need to force feed it eventually. At least until it's a lot bigger.

[@BenjaminsExotics]

@Wolf-Kissed (Rosie), If he/she is consistently eating smaller prey items then I would not suggest assist feeding, which is mainly for frogs that refuse to feed entirely. It may be that the pill bugs or other feeders you have tried are too large, as American Toads normally love pill bugs, beetles, worms, ants, centipedes, and all sorts of other small invertebrates that are common in your area.

[@barryturner2802]

Hi what do you do if after you do all that and it just keeps spitting it out

[@BenjaminsExotics]

@barryturner2802, It really depends on the species, but generally even if they refuse to accept the prey item on the first try they will eventually give in after a few attempts.

[@BenjaminsExotics]

@Parker Collum life, It can take a few days for them to start feeding. If your Toad is wild caught it may have internal parasites as well, which can negatively affect their apatite. Fenbendazole and metronidazole have worked well for my collection.

[@BenjaminsExotics]

@Tingles From Pringles, Distilled water is not a good source for frogs and may be what is causing this problem if you are using it exclusively. Treated tap water or spring water work best 90% of the time. If your WTF is captive bred and lives in a proper clean environment it is unlikely that the problem is a fungal infection.

[@Holypikemanz]

@Benjamin's Exotics rewatched this video to finally get toad mouth access. The part i was missing was aiming the non sharp syringe at underneath their top jaw and letting them relax after a few seconds and stop bracing their jaw, so then mouth access got much easier. You do it like a pro. I gave my little toad who is having gas and poor eating, first yesterday some fendbenazole, then today some small calcium powder in water, since I hadnt been the best with keeping track on how much "dusted" cricket he was getting. Also gave him 1hr 30 in the UV pet approved sun lamp. I hope he pulls through :( Should I put a little b vitamin powder in water into his mouth?

@@91talonboostbuddy The same assist feeding method shown in this video will apply to most species of frogs and toads. Generally this technique is only necessary for adult wild caught individuals, and is very rarely ever needed in either captive raised or captive bred specimens that are kept properly.

Toads are actually frogs 🐸

@@dianaross2070 hmm so toads stay in water like frogs? Toads breathe through thier skin and lungs? Toads live on land and don't need water like a frog does. If a frog gets to far from its water source it dries and dies
