Hello!
Either you have not registered on this site yet, or you are registered but have not logged in. In either case, you will not be able to use the full functionality of this site until you have registered, and then logged in after your registration has been approved.
Registration is FREE, so please register so you can participate instead of remaining a lurker....
Please note that the information requested during registration will be used to determine your legitimacy as a participant of this site. As such, any information you provide that is determined to be false, inaccurate, misleading, or highly suspicious will result in your registration being rejected. This is designed to try to discourage as much as possible those spammers and scammers that tend to plague sites of this nature, to the detriment of all the legitimate members trying to enjoy the features this site provides for them.
Of particular importance is the REQUIREMENT that you provide your REAL full name upon registering. Sorry, but this is not like other sites where anonymity is more the rule.
Also your TRUE location is important. If the location you enter in your profile field does not match the location of your registration IP address, then your registration will be rejected. As such, I strongly urge registrants to avoid using a VPN service to register, as they are often used by spammers and scammers, and as such will be blocked when discovered when auditing new registrations.
Sorry about all these hoops to jump through, but I am quite serious about blocking spammers and scammers at the gate on this site and am doing the very best that I can to that effect. Trust me, I would rather be doing more interesting things with my time, and wouldn't be making this effort if I didn't think it was worthwhile.

Inappropriately sized rodents and a live ball python...
Ed, you're no better than that jackass kid who posted videos of his tegu "fighting" a rat. I've got no problem with feeding any given species to another IF- and this is the important part- it's the best possible choice as a prey species. The same goes for feeding live prey items, no objections when it's necessary but with a pyxie it simply isn't required nutritionally and it certainly it's required that a live python be tossed in as a prey item to battle it out so you can get your rocks off over the slow death of one animal to another.
Negligent ignorant crap. I'll leave you to figure out if I'm talking about the photos, the practice or you personally.

Do you really need this much attention Ed. Must have been really bugging you when no one replied to your avatar so much that you had to make a thread to point out your frog eats live ball pythons. It really doesn't matter to you if you get negative or positive attention does it? Just as long as it is attention. Please find a new forum to play on.

Heres some feeding tips for you from a guy that has kept thousands of these frogs.
A staple diet of crickets, roaches and other insects make up the majority of a Giant African Pyxies diet. an ocassional lizard, rodent and a snake is part of a varied and healthy diet. maybe every 4-6 weeks is best with food items like rodents,snake or lizard. these are big frogs that eat alot of food.
Seamus, I would like to offer you any advice on these giant frogs that could help you understand them better.
btw, how many pyxies do you presently keep?

I for one enjoyed the pictures. I keep these frogs myself, and must say attitudes and reputations aside, Mr. Clark has amazing looking frogs as seen by his photos.
Never had the opportunity (good or bad) to feed a ball python to any of mine, but spiders, scorpions, and geckos are often on their menu. Big boys (and girls) need big meals.
I just wonder if a feeding pic of a hognose taking a spadefoot toad would elicit the same response. Somehow, I doubt it.

Its not very interesting showing a Pyxie eating a cricket or night crawler.....but a rare meal of something bigger is a very interesting pic to look at.
