Yesterday I went to the local petstore, where I occasionally get pinheads. There was a young man in the store holding a deli cup with an adult male Tinc. The frog was very skinny and did not look well at all. He said that he did not have money for fruit flies and the frog wouldn't eat crickets. I gave him five bucks for the frog and told him to "beat it!" I was very upset, because this happens way too often. People buy animals and don't know how to take care of them.
Anyway, I got the lil guy to eat, but he hasn't really gained any weight. Is there any way to get him beafed up quick? I put the entire FF cup in the tank so he could eat the magets.
Suggestion, Tips, or Tricks?
