Uncle Milton Planet Frog - Manual (Page 5)

Feeding Your Frog (continued)
Open the feeding hatch on the top of Planet
Frog and drop in 1 to 2 crickets. Then close the
feeding hatch. Your frog will do the rest.
If there are any dead crickets in the habitat,
remove them before feeding.
You may also collect your own insects to feed
your frog. Sow bugs, houseflies, moths, or
small earthworms will make good meals for
your frog. Frogs do not like to eat beetles
or ants. Do not put beetles or ants in
Planet Frog. Do not feed your frog
anything that is larger than half the frog’s size.
Also note, the frog hunts based on movement,
so it will not eat dead insects.
As your frog grows, it will require more food,
but it is best to limit the amount of food to
avoid fouling Planet Frog with mold or fungus.
Cleaning Planet Frog (Part II)
Clean water is as important to a frog as it is to a
tadpole. Once or twice a week (depending on
how big your frog is, or if
you have more than one
frog) you will need to
change the water on
Planet Frog. Here is how
to do it:
1 Always keep room
temperature bottled
spring water on
hand.
2 Remove the cover
from Planet Frog.
3 Wet your hands first,
then carefully pick up
your frog and place
it’s in a bowl or a
large cup with a half inch of water in it. Do
not under any circumstances have any
soap or chemicals on your hands. Cover
the bowl or cup to keep your frog from
getting out. DO NOT USE A BOWL OR CUP
WITH AN AIRTIGHT LID. Your frog still
needs to breathe.
4 Pour the old water from Planet Frog
into the sink and rinse the entire
habitat with warm tap water.
DO NOT USE ANY SOAP OR OTHER
CLEANERS. (Frogs have sensitive skin.
The chemicals in soap and other
cleaning products may harm your frog.)
Make sure to clean off all waste and
excess food.
5 Fill Planet Frog with clean, room
temperature, bottled water. Fill to the
yellow fill line (approximately a half inch
below the top edge of the shore).
Never use any cleaning products, air
fresheners, insecticides, etc. on or near
Planet Frog. These products can easily
contaminate
Planet Frog.
