Pacific Chorus Frogs

loganhopeless · Apr 9, 2014

Hey! First time posting in this area.. Anyway, I have a pregnant Pacific Chorus Frog (P. Regilla) and a hatching egg sac of newts (unknown species). Any tips regarding the two? Also any chance they could live together? The tadpoles and the tiny newts? Thanks!

Keep them separate, not a good idea to mix. Also with some frogs ( not sure if all species ) many breeders put each egg in its own cup/ mini tank. Some tadpoles will eat each other as well. Keeping separate maximizes numbers. Also as you MAY know they require clean water fairly regularly, filters etc. Again, I know breeders who do this and I'm unsure if it applies to all frog species.

"hatching" out frogs/ raising them is quite a lot of work. Hit one of the dart frog forums they'll know

If you don't have a male pacific tree frog it will not matter, fertilization is external. Do NOT keep different species of amphibians together.

So you don't need a male in order to have eggs? Like a stick insect??

No you need a male. The way I read it you only had the gravid female. If you do have a male best of luck!

Well I'm starting to think that it just had like a huge meal, because it's getting smaller and no eggs. And it's been almost a week..

I would separate them. taricha larvae are quite voracious, and chorus frog tadpoles are tiny. Not a good combo

They both will be fine until the newts grow larger.
