In this category you will find ready-made substrates and specialized substrates for the Bell's Horned Frog - Ceratophrys Ornata, which will also work great for other species of land frogs. It should be remembered that most frogs have delicate skin and are sensitive to dehydration, therefore the substrate should be primarily safe for the amphibian and provide it with adequate moisture.

What Substrate for Bell's Horned Frog?

The substrate for the terrarium for the Horned Frog should allow it to dig freely, absorb odors, allow for quick cleaning and keep moisture well, because this amphibian needs humidity at the level of 80-90% during its activity (during wintering about 65%). For the Horned Frog, deacidified peat with sand, sphagnum moss or soil for a moist forest terrarium, e.g. Bioactive substrate for a wet terrarium, works very well as a substrate. It is worth planting the horned frog terrarium with plants such as Scindapsus, Synogonium or Aglaonema, which need a similar level of humidity as the amphibian, provide it with comfort and have an attractive effect on the aesthetics of the terrarium. You should avoid substrates, i.e. gravel and coarse sand, which damage the delicate skin of the amphibian.
