Very much south..
Guys, a friend of mine offered me (i) a couple of african bullfrogs and (iii) a foursome of tomatoe frogs ( 3 males and 1 huge female ).

Now I know next to nothing about frogs ( only that I am very happy to be in their posession and will do my best )...

Any guys / gals care to share some info ( not much in here by way of info, i've tried searching )..

For starters, my Tomatoes are up and about ( will try to feed them wonderworms tonight ) , my African bulls have not left a hole they excavated in the first minute I put them in the terrarium...they left a whole plate of meal worms untouched....should I worry?

Thank You
 
there are 2 species of african bull frogs, search pixie frog on here, there is probably a lot of info on here. The behaviour you described for them is normal.
Tomato frogs will also eat various insects, waxworms etc. Both will want a nice soft substrate to burrow into. Both have a wait and ambush technique to catch their prey. Theres a lot of other info on google, they are wildly kept species.
 
Thank you Davo..You allways have great and helpfull inputs!! I think they are the big Pixies..
 
Watch yer fingers...they bite! (Pyxies that is).
