Description

PROVIDES THERMAL COVER FOR HIBERNATION & ESTIVATION — Frogs are intelligent amphibians and have countless strategies to deal with the extreme climatic conditions. Leaf litter keeps the soil temperature consistent and insulates your pet against cold and heat. American toads and other terrestrial frogs are good diggers who can burrow deep into the soil to reach their leaf litter. See your pet making room for himself in the midst of the litter for spending and surviving this winter!
SUSTAIN HEALTHY POPULATION OF MICROFAUNA — Microfauna such as isopods and springtails thrive in such an environment. Since frogs are carnivores, they tend to eat the smaller animal species. The leaf litter attracts centipedes, beetles, millipedes, worms, spiders, and slugs that serve as their food source. Consequently, together, they help in keeping the vivarium clean. The breakdown of leaves also aids in plant growth.
IMPROVES CHANCES OF REPRODUCTION — If you want to create opportunities for a thriving habitat, you need to spread the SunGrow leaf litter in the terrarium setup. As they feed off the decaying litter, the mineral and nutrient-rich leaves offer them a better and increased chance to reproduce. The decomposition process influences the pH of the soil.
KEEPS FROGS OUT OF DIRT — As frogs live in such an environment where dirt sticking is a very common occurrence, you need to take preventive measures being their parents. This sticking of the dirt causes unnecessary stress and health issues in them. Adding a thick layer of leaf litter over the substrate will give them a lot of room to hop on and prevent themselves from getting muddy in the mud.
ADD NUTRIENTS TO THE SUBSTRATE — When the pack of 50-pieces of dried leaves by SunGrow is spread on the floor of the vivarium, see your beloved pets hopping on to them. This will crush the leaves providing you with a visual barrier and hide for the inhabitants. As it will gradually break down, it will release nutrients that will prove to be highly beneficial for your overall frog’s development.
