Benefits of Frog Supplies
Frogs, like all pets, require a specific environment to thrive. With the right supplies, you can mimic their natural habitat and ensure they live a long, healthy life. Here are some benefits of providing your frog with high-quality supplies:
Proper Habitat Setup – Frogs need a suitable habitat that provides both land and water areas, as well as a temperature and humidity level that mimics their natural environment. The right terrariums, plants, and decorations can help you create the perfect setup.
Temperature and Humidity Control – Maintaining the right temperature and humidity is crucial for your frog's health. With the proper heating and cooling systems, along with humidity control tools, you can keep your frog’s environment ideal for them to thrive.
Nutritional Needs – Frogs require a diet rich in protein, which includes live or frozen insects, as well as the occasional supplement. The right food and feeding supplies will keep your frog healthy and active.
Water Quality – Since many frog species are aquatic or semi-aquatic, clean water is essential. Proper filtration and water conditioners help ensure that your frog has access to safe, clean water for hydration and soaking.

Common Questions
What type of habitat do frogs need?
Frogs generally need a habitat that has both land and water areas. The water should be deep enough for them to submerge, and the land area should provide a place for them to climb and rest. Many frogs also need humidity to stay healthy, so be sure to include humidity-boosting items like moss and a water dish for soaking.
What should I feed my frog?
Frogs are carnivores and typically eat live insects such as crickets, mealworms, and fruit flies. Some frogs also eat small fish or aquatic invertebrates. It’s important to provide a varied diet, and supplements like calcium powder may be necessary to support bone health.
How do I maintain humidity for my frog?
Frogs need high humidity to stay hydrated and healthy. To maintain proper humidity, you can use a misting system, humidity trays, or simply spray the terrarium with water regularly. Be sure to monitor humidity levels with a hygrometer to ensure they stay within the ideal range for your frog species.
