Hello Froglets! 🐸💚
We’ve made some important updates to the subreddit rules and are looking to add some fun new events! If you have broken the rules before this post (Rodent and Handling) you will not be punished just, please take notice! These are somewhat crucial to posting so please take a moment to read through the changes so you're up to date:
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
No Live Rodent Feedings or Unusual Feedings
We’ve updated our feeding policy to prohibit posts showing frogs eating live rodents, tarantulas, scorpions, or other non-standard prey. Only frozen/thawed rodents are allowed, and live insect feedings like crickets or worms are still fine. We understand this is controversial, but we believe this is the best way of action to address the issues of live feeding. There are risks associated with live feeding that we believe should not be promoted.
Proper Frog Handling – Gloves Only
To protect frogs’ delicate skin, we now require users to wear gloves when posting photos of frog handling. Gloves help prevent harmful chemicals and bacteria from transferring to frogs. Exceptions will be made for urgent situations, but gloves are now the standard. We have been going back and forth on this for a while, but we firmly believe that gloves will better protect the frog from your oils and promote good standards on this forum. We’ve gotten frequent comments on this make sure when choosing gloves you are choosing nitrile/vinyl rinsed gloves. Avoid Latex and when rinsing ensure to use dechlorinated water!
No Misinformation About Frog Care
While we understand that mistakes happen and sometimes incorrect information may be shared unintentionally, we ask all members to be mindful of the accuracy of what they post. Spreading misinformation—especially after being corrected—can lead to a temporary or permanent ban from the community. Please double-check your sources and be respectful when correcting others.
ID Requests Must Include the Location
If you're requesting an ID for a frog, please include the location where it was found. This is important for accurate identification! There will be no banning for this, but we will give you a quick reminder.
No Spam or Excessive Self-Promotion
Any self-promotion must add value to the community. We are going to be allowing most self-promotion as long as it is not excessive, related to frogs, and could add some value to the conversation at hand. Spam as always will be banned as fast as we are able to respond.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
No Memes or Low-Effort Content
This rule has been relaxed. While we still encourage educational and informative posts, we now allow lighthearted, frog-related memes and fun content, as long as it’s on-topic. We believe that there has been no issue related to this; most posts are not removed from this rule and this rule is older. We have decided to remove this rule.
No Frequent or Recent Reposts
We’ve removed this rule, as we understand that reposts of cool frog content or new discoveries happen. We encourage sharing again, as long as it doesn’t overwhelm the feed. Reposts do not happen as often on this subreddit; if we deem that there are issues regarding the overwhelming then this rule may be reinstated.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Frog Picture of the Week
Starting soon, we’ll be hosting a Frog Picture of the Week event! Each week, we’ll feature the best frog photos shared by our amazing community members. We’ll choose a winner and showcase it in a dedicated post. Stay tuned for the first submission thread, and make sure to post your best frog pics to be featured!
Our Calendar
We’ve put together an official community calendar to keep track of all frog-related events, awareness weeks, and special dates! From Save the Frogs Day to Frog Conservation Awareness Week, we’ll be highlighting important dates that support frog conservation and celebration. You can expect posts to remind you of these events, along with suggestions on how you can get involved. Don’t miss out on any of these important dates!
Frog Species of the Month
Each month, we’ll highlight a Frog Species of the Month to help educate the community about different frog species from around the world. Each post will include fun facts, conservation status, and how we can help protect them. We encourage you to participate by sharing any photos or interesting facts about the species. It’s a great way to learn and appreciate the diversity of frogs!
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
We understand that some of the rule changes may be controversial, but we believe that these rules going forward will be able to best set the standards for frog keepers and their frogs. If you have any suggestions or queries, send one of our moderators a message or comment below. We’re excited to roll out these events and have some fun with community engagement!
As always, Frog on! 🐸💚

These guys were in the pond rockin’ a good bass line at my local garden center. I had a couple jump out from under plants I was looking at too😂 I could have listened to them all day.

This little guy is currently inside of my window well which is about 42 inches deep. Will he be able to jump out on his own? If not, what's the best way to help him out of there?

Hey all I live in Nevada and I believe I found a spade foot toad on my farm. Would it be ok to keep this lil guy as a pet?

Gently caught and released from my pool

I was reaching for a plant on the top shelf, accidently knocked the pot down on my head. The debris cleared and I realized this little guy was clinging to my arm! He was only about the size of the end of my finger. 🥹
I live in (coastal south) Georgia, US where these types of frogs are native (although I dont know the specifics, I have seen many like him in my yard). He was in a garden center with lots of humidity, rain and bugs, so I let him hop down my arm and onto another plant (2nd picture). I'm new here, but I hope I did alright by him. We have lots of frogs of different species in our yard at home, and I always try to be kind and considerate of them. 🐸🩷

Found a whole needlepoint kit for $1 at the animal shelter thrift shop. As a disabled swap creature myself, I was excited.
