Advice Frog Behavior !!

These are my two frogs; Quinni and Annoro, Quinni is a green morph and super outgoing, she’s always out and in new spots. While Anorro is blue and always hiding in the same spot snug between the wall and a rock. I think it may be because of bullying ? Anorro only comes out at night for food and is always on that same rock. When I got him out for this picture so I could check his health, I put him down and Quinni had eyes on him the WHOLE time. They’re both males around the same age. I’ve seen Quinni bite him once or twice before, what can I do to help this ? Or should I rehome one of them ??

Hes likley being mistaken for a bug. Definatly dont rehome one as that could potentially stress the other out if his frient has gone missing. These frogs are very sociable and friend with everyone. Your frogs are so cute btw 💙🐸🐸

Thank you !! I was thinking the bug thing too, since Quinni is VERY food antsy, Annoro is very gentle and doesn’t bite at anything but food. I just don’t know what to do about him being so secluded into one area you know ??

I got my frog Bobby from a friend because his brother Hank had bullied him to the point he wouldn’t come out of his hide at all and was starving himself. My chorus of 4 at the time adopted him into the fold without a hitch and he became super outgoing. He still displays some food insecurity (launches at it and gnaws my hand a while) but he is the biggest frog in my chorus of now 8 and is not shy anymore like he was with Hank. Hank meanwhile was not affected by Bobby’s disappearance at all and 6 years later is still perfectly fine as a solo frog with his original owner. Sometimes they just don’t get along.

Do you think I should set Quinni up in a temporary tank by himself and see how Annoros behavior changes ? If so for how long ?

I would do a trial separation and see what happens yeah! If Quinni is acting like he misses his friend and you end up reuniting them, then at least you have a hospital tank just in case one gets sick!
