Frogs can be good pets, but they also need a lot of care. Many people are under the illusion that a frog will need minimal attention, but this is not always the case. A frog can live for a very long time, so if you are considering buying a frog, you need to be prepared to care for it. Frogs need constant feeding and their behaviour does vary, so you need to do some research on each specific frog that you are considering.
Many frogs eat live insects and even mice, so you need to find out about the diet of a frog beforehand. Some frogs hibernate during the winter months, and many others do not. Some frogs can live in water, whereas others prefer it dry. Some live in trees and others on the ground. There are a great variety of different frogs, so choosing a particular one can be difficult. You will want to do all your research prior to looking in the pet shop, as the needs and habitats of each frog can vary highly.
