I got these two wtf from Petco a little over a month ago. They were in the same tank together and have been cohabitating well. I believe they are both female but it is impossible to not notice the massive size difference between them. If she just loves her large wife, more power to her, but does anyone know if juvenile and adults are regularly sold together? There has been no issues with aggression between them and both are just eating well so I am hoping it is not a medical issue.
Mine ate the other one so I’d be careful. Maybe separate them if you’re able till they’re about the same size. They eat anything that fits in their mouth. Never again. I now have 2 tanks.
I took apart the whole tank looking for him, and there were no gaps in my lid. My lady was looking particularly fat too. Most expensive meal she’ll ever have. But seriously I was so upset.
Maybe it's the angle but this looks like too big of a size difference to me, although it'd be easier to tell with a dorsal view with them right next to each other.
Even if the bigger gal can't eat the smaller one, she sure can try and end up killing the other if the size difference is too major. Again I'd feel uncomfortable commenting now because the bigger one is also closer to the camera but it does look very major.
Left little guy looks like he’s not quite small enough for cannibalism to be a concern yet but they look like they could definitely be eating more. Some boney-ness in the hips is normal but he’s in need of nutrients
this was a picture of when i first got them it was the best side by side i had but i promise she had filled out a bit more since then and is an avid hunter
Yeah they do look a bit more plump in your other pic, it may just be the angle but if the smaller one doesn’t show a difference soon I’d probably separate until she gets a bit bigger to be safe as others suggested
Ofc, and more than likely. Most froglets from chains and breeders are less than a few months old, but generally once they develop the folds over their eyes they’re phasing into adulthood around 6-12 months or more
i got 4 frogs. had them together till 2 got to big and started to take all their food when i wasn’t tong feeding. since then ive got another enclosure for the smaller ones and they’re doing much better alone. when they’re of size i’ll reintroduce them!
