| That web site is NOT good at all. The cage is way too small, has gravel (which will surely cause impaction and kill the frog), and has barely any water. Budgett's frogs need nearly 100 percent aquatic enclosures. They should have about five inches of water with no substrate at all, a powerful filter, a water heater, and (only if you want) a small plant or peice of wood for the frog to climb up onto. This is a good care sheet. And here is a great looking Budgett's frog tank.
0.1 Eublepharis macularias
1.0.1 Rhacodactylus ciliatus
0.0.4 Terrapene carolina
0.0.1 Theloderma corticale

First off that was just a temporary home. Pet stores cant always afford homes large enough 4 everything. And the frog looked like it was thriving. Also the frog was only fed in the water so impaction was not a factor. Im sure if they had the room, the would give the frogs more space. But, again it was just temporary!

| Why is it that you continuously ask many questions (which there is nothing wrong with) but continuously deny any answers that are not ideal to you (which there is something wrong with)? You have asked many questions that I have answered which I do not mind at all. But you have constantly rejected my advice and just keep ignoring the proper information. You can not change an animal's requirements to fit your "needs" better. I am not trying to be mean or rude, but you need to either start taking advice or stop asking questions. Budgett's frogs can never be kept on gravel. That is a recipe for disaster. And Budgett's frogs are almost fully aquatic. Why would a frog that almost never goes on land need a tank that is ninety-five percent land? They need to swim not just soak. The frog can barely fit in the dish. I understand not every store has the amount of space to give every animal an perfectly sized cage (even though they really should) and the cage size is not the real issue. Feeding a food item to a frog that is bigger than the frog itself, e.g. the tadpole, is not okay at all. Even if you think the frog looks "healthy," you do not know how it behaves, eats, or defecates. It also could have just arrived at the store. The care sheet I gave to you is great! It is written by a very experienced Budgett's frog keeper that really knows his stuff. It should provide a great guide to anyone looking to get a Budgett's frog.

I am truly sorry if i come across as rude. I really dont mean to. Anyway, the reason i ask so many questions and seem to deny your answers is that sometimes if my mind is set on something i want it and i will try everything to get it. Also i see where u r coming with the frogs. I didnt like the setup either and it does make sense that it is wrong. However, i was trying to highlight the care tips more. Once iagain i am sorry and i hope u forgive me 4 coming across as rude!

It's okay. I know sometimes people will get their mind set on something (I do it too) and sometimes everything just seems wrong because you really want to get what you want. And if you still want to keep a Budgett's frog inside, they are very simple to care for.

Alright. I have a exo terra terrarium with a whites tree frog, crested gecko and blue gliding frog. I was hoping to move them into a larger tank soon. If i encorperated a water feature, could i keep one? How do i care for it? Also will it eat my gliding frog. Its too big for my whites but i dont know about budgetts, if its 2 big 4 them as well.
