African Clawed Frogs, unlike the Dwarf Clawed frogs can grow to very large sizes. The females are generally bigger and fatter than the males, who are small and slim. The females have a bigger appetite and
eat more than the males. Especially during breeding. |

| Finding something that your frog doesn't like to eat is a challenge! They are greedy and eat anything remotely
edible that they like the taste of and that they can fit into their mouths! |

| Although the African Clawed Frog, Xenopus laevis, is commonly seen in captivity, little authoritative information on its husbandry and breeding is available to the lay public. Given the fact that this frog has
been known to science since the 19th century, such a conspicuous lack of information is truly amazing. It is also unfortunate, as the African Clawed Frog makes an ideal pet for seasoned herpetoculturists
and rank novices alike, if its unique needs are appropriately met. Questions regarding proper food, housing, lighting, temperature, etc. are constantly encountered not only on USENET's rec.pets.herp
discussion group but also in other herpetocultural fora as well. Hopefully, this sheet will be able to clarify the African Clawed Frog's basic requirements so that owners will finally be able to feel confident their
charges are receiving the best possible care. |
