Its size is relatively large, and it is known as "the frog of Asia". Frogs have rough skin, dark irregular markings on the head side, slightly yellowish green on the back, white on the abdomen, irregular markings and grayish brown spots on the throat and chest, hence the name.
Frogs belong to aquatic frogs, but they are not frogs. Often live in paddy fields, ditches, reservoirs, ponds, swamps and other places below 900 meters above sea level in hilly areas, as well as in the nearby grass.
During the day, I hid in caves and mud pits of various depths and sizes, only sticking my head out of the hole. If there is food activity, I will hunt quickly, and if I meet the enemy, I will hide in the hole. Males also occupy a certain area, even in high-density places, the distance between them is more than 10 meter. When they found other similar activities in the wild, they quickly jumped over and drove away the invaders.
The living habits of frogs
Tiger frog is a carnivorous animal, which mainly preys on insects such as locusts, butterflies, dragonflies and beetles in nature, while tiger frog tadpoles feed on natural bait such as protozoa, algae and organic debris in water. Tiger frog is different from other frogs. It can not only prey on active food, but also find and eat static food directly without domestication.
It is selective to still food, and generally prefers foods with muddy smell, such as fish, snails and earthworms. Tiger frog mainly preys at night, but less during the day. Tiger frog tadpoles metamorphose quickly, so the frog's growth period is longer.
Its growth rate is relatively fast, and after 4-5 months of breeding, it can reach the specifications of the first-class commercial frog. Generally speaking, it only takes about 1 month for a tiger frog to transform into a frog. After metamorphosis, the frog's weight increases rapidly, reaching 6% of its body weight every day, the temperature is about 30℃, the feed is sufficient and the management is proper. After three months of feeding, the average individual can reach more than100g, and the maximum can reach150g.
