Feeding times will obviously vary from species to species - a nocturnal species would probably enjoy something to eat when it wakes - nothing like a good breakfast to set you up for the day!
Depending on the size of the species will indicate how often it should be fed. A small species will require probably daily feeding, a medium-sized species will require feeding maybe three or four times a week and a large species less than that.
Again, the type of food and size of food will be different for each species. There is a general rule though that the portion of food offered should be no larger than the width of the amphibian's head.
It can be difficult to know how much to give your pet frog, but if you offer it some food and it is gobbled up quickly, then you are probably safe to add a little bit more at a time until the frog seems content. If there is some food left over, then next time you feed froggy you can give a little less - really it is trial and error until you get to know your frog or other amphibian!
However you should always remember to remove any uneaten food quickly as if it gets in to the water area and fouls the water this could affect badly the health of your frog.
Then this is your place to share your story! Other 'froggy' people would love to hear from you, and share their stories here too.
