That was funny.Maybe they are spoilt but i love them alot and do try to look after them as one of the species i have is endangered and all the rest are protected.Would i spend a few hundred dollars and all the trouble on an amphibian licence i wasnt serious ? Its alot of work and everything has to be documented and sent back to npws.I have to breed them myself to ensure i know what they are getting in there diet.What i feed the mice & crickets depends affects the health of the frogs.Mites and diseases are common i dont want that i want to breed them and hopefully make them a little bit more abundant so hopefully precious native australion frogs survive forever even if i have to do it in captivity.There i go talking rubbish again but thats why i need mice.

What do you think is going to happen, they'll rip your ankles to shreds or something? Mice aren't exactly brave, you know, they are probably running for their lives at this very moment, you frog-feeding maniac! OK, so Mrs. Mouse ate Mr. Mouse (or so you seem to think). He was probably boring anyway, what with a name like Stuart and all. She's most likely not all that bad. You could try petting her, talking to her, telling her she's a good mouse, a pretty mouse, and things will be all right really soon. Female mice fall for those lines all the time.

I think your real problem is with the frogs. They're spoiled rotten, if you feed them mice all the time. They are probably at the bottom of all this. Never turn your back on a frog, they're cunning and amazingly adept at close quarter fighting. Ask any fly.

I suggest you go boldly into the laundry room, pick up the towels, pick up the bong, and don't use it again for quite a while. The Maytag repairman will handle all the rest.
