Penguinman and Nettie's Strawberry Frog and Tree Frog
« on: April 01, 2007, 04:04:27 AM »
i put in Penguinman and Nettie's Strawberry Dart Frog and there Red Eyed Tree Frog and when i put them in-game, i found they woulden't eat at all.
theres tons of food in there encloser, i even put in some of all kinds to see if they didn't like insects, but they wont eat anything.

anybody know an easy way i can make em work?

Hmmm.  Well maybe someone will remember better than me about this, but this problem has come up before.

First I think it may have had something to do with XP version.  I think you need at least ES for them to work properly.

Also I seem to remember some people having trouble because they will only eat from the trough of insects which is available at a higher star level than the frogs are.  Someone made an insect dish but I don't know if the frogs can eat from it.

They will only eat from the hollow log with insects. It's available much later, but if you assign a zookeeper to the frog exhibit, he/she will place it even if it isn't available. :)

Aha, thanks!  I knew it was one of the food options that came up later but the log slipped my mind.  You're right, that was it!   :)

Yup, Penguinman made the insect dish with frogs in mind. They eat from it alright.

assigned a zookeeper, but he never placed the log.
maybe that was fixed in later versions.

as for needing ES, i have that (and AA and MM)
i'll just search for the insect dish.

thanks for the info.
