Dinner time

[CourtneyAndCarl]

Took a few pictures of the animals during feeding time. My "special" gecko is always hysterical to watch when he eats, and the frogs, Humphrey and Bogart, were making sure to stalk their crickets for a very long time tonight I added a picture of my betta, Ironman, who was just looking pretty, as always, next to the frog enclosure.

Beautiful pics and thanks for sharing them.....

Thanks for the pics

 

[CourtneyAndCarl]

Thanks! I never miss an opportunity for a photo shoot

Great pics. Do the crickets tend to stay in the dish? I have red eyed tree frogs. I hate having the crickets all over and possibly not being found by the frogs. I would love to find a way to keep them in one place.

The one in the gecko tank only has about half inch sides, and as you can see, there isn't even a cricket in it (that's what I mean by "special gecko" ), that's his mealworm dish. The one in the frog enclosure has 1.5 inch sides and the crickets don't even try to get out. They easily could, they just don't It works out though because one of the frogs prefers to stalk the crickets around the enclosure, the other one likes to eat them out of the dish, so when the one jumps into the dish, he may scare out a couple of crickets for the other one, but usually they all stay in.

Thanks. I will have to try a dish with high sides

I don't know about red eyes, but my White's tree frogs are incredibly clumsy eaters. I'm not even sure how they catch the crickets when they are in the dish

OMG, LMAS way too funny. Mine are nocturnal, so haven't seen them eat

 

[CourtneyAndCarl]

Whites are also nocturnal, but if we were comparing them to tortoises, red eyes would be the burmese stars and whites would be the sulcatas . Not nearly as pretty, but way more personable (especially, sometimes only if, food is involved). I swear, I will go down there at night to get their dinner ready, and they both get on their little vine right in front of the door, and stare at me intently, watching my every move. I know red eyes can be that way, just takes them a lot longer to warm up, probably.

 

[wellington]

I hope they warm up. I never get to see them awake unless I purposely wake them. Which I don't like to do. I have waited until 12-1 a.m. To see them awake and still haven't..

It might take them a little longer to realize that you are "the bringer of the food" but once they do, they'll be nicer

Neat!

Love the frog video! I've got a couple of red eyes; they're not as clumsy, but close. One of mine gets really excited around feeding time, and will take food from my feeder tongs, but the other is pretty shy and just goes to sleep until I leave her alone.

Love all these pictures, and especially the frog video. We just got a little pac man frog now. So cute.

Haha, pacman frogs are even clumsier eaters And apparently they get to be the size of dinner plates, which just amazes me. How big is yours?

[Jacqui]
