Each year in October or November I buy some tiny Whistling Tree Frog tadpoles. We watch them grow bigger, get legs, loose tails and eventually become cute little frogs. This year I decided to try keeping the frogs so the children could enjoy them a little longer.
Our frogs are called Mr. Samuel Squishy, Mrs. Rosie Bubbles, and Lexi Stretchy.

| This is our frog terrarium. Eagle made sure it had all a little frog could need. |

| They are hard to spot, but our little guy is sitting on the stones in the centre of the picture. |
 |
| Here he is on a finger. |
 |
| These little frogs eat ants, fruit flies, meal worms and other small bugs. Ants are the easiest for us to catch. As long as the ants have a source of sugar to eat they are content to mingle around their feast and not try to escape! |
 |
| They like to hide under the little log bridge, and as they are aboreal frogs (tree dwelling) they like to climb the little tree twigs. |
This is a link I found that was helpful.
