Fire Leg Running Frog for Sale

The Spotted Running Frog (Kassina maculata) is a frog species of the Hyperoliidae family. As the common name implies, they would rather "run" than hop. These nocturnal frogs are primarily ground-dwellers, and found on the coastal plains of Kenya south into the north eastern Republic of South Africa. Their feet are not webbed, although they love to sit in shallow pools. Their pupils are vertically aligned, like a cats', and the eyes are deep bronze to burnished gold in color. Being rather hardy and robust, they do survive well under appropriate basic conditions.

Other common names include Red-Legged Running Frog, Brown-Spotted Tree Frog, Red-Legged Kassina, Red-Legged Pan Frog, Tiger Leg Running Frog, and Vlei Frog.

Size of a Spotted Running Frog

Adult body length is typically 3 inches long.

Feeding a Spotted Running Frog

A diet of live crickets, mealworms, or flies is appropriate, and size of food should be limited to the width of the space between the frog's eyes.

Caging Requirements for a Spotted Running Frog

Housing/Habitat: Because the frogs are ground-lovers, give them a longer than taller tank. A 29 gallon is good for two to four frogs. Moss or coconut fiber should be used as substrate for burrowing, with both wet and dry ground areas within the enclosure. A basin or bowl of clean, fresh water is necessary. Misting of fresh water should occur twice a day at the wet end of the tank. Plants (real or artificial) should be present for climbing.

Lighting: A source of UV light is not required.

Temperature: An ambient temperature of 72 to 77 °F is sufficient.

Humidity: 80% relative humidity is recommended
