Hooray! The frogs and hermit crabs should be here in a couple of weeks. We will do several lessons that involve observing them closely and looking at how they are adapted to their environment.
I think that the frogs are cuter and more interesting to watch, but the hermit crabs are easier to take care of. The frogs eat live crickets, so I constantly have to go and buy them live crickets - it's kind of a pain.
Last year we didn't name them because we really couldn't tell them apart (especially the hermit crabs). Also, I don't know how to tell if they are male or female.
The hermit crabs eat this hermit crab food, it is kind of powder and flakes.
The frogs we are getting are called African Tree Frogs. They are not slimy. Their habitat is mostly soil and mulch and some tree branches for them to sit and climb on.
erin, you asked wich is better well i think that a tree frog is better than the hermitte crabs because they are ugly no afence hermitte crabs.. ....tyller
