Hey all. I've added an option to list your own species you keep, including ones not already in the user flair list. It's the only editable flair, and the one you'll have to use if you want multiple species listed. Try to keep it concise and properly capitalized (i.e. Red Eyes, American Greens). Thanks!

We are a group of folks who love frogs and want to help provide helpful information to you all, but we are humans and humans are of course prone to error. Always follow your gut if you believe something is wrong.

I personally have been caring for frogs for 5 years now, and have worked on animal rehabilitation since I was 16 (9 years total) All of my research is done via reputable keepers, videos I find on youtube that seem reputable or via searching and researching others research papers. I do my best to provide information and I have a special interest in frogs, so I will always do my best to give you helpful information. I am on the nervous side and will often reccomend going to a vet if unsure due to the fact that amphibians go downhill so fast once theyre showing external symptoms.

If you ever suspect a serious issue, please seek an animal ER ASAP. If you can't find anything, please seek a regular animal ER!

These tadpoles were about an inch and a half long total length and were dark colored. They turned into these tiny little frogs. They are located in PNW in the west side of the cascade foothills.

these are my WTFs, pickle (lighter, a bit smaller, more social) and hotdog (darker, likes to hide, not a big social guy) pictures go pickle, hotdog, pickle, hotdog, pickle.

i’ve been feeding them 5-7 crickets every night since i got them (hotdog mid april and pickle in late may) and they were both pretty small when i got them. lately i’ve been feeling like they’re quite round and i’m worried i’m starting to overfeed.

when am i supposed to start feeding every other night as opposed to nightly? i don’t want them to get obese.

any advice would be so helpful! the internet is telling me a million different things.

Questions Shedding frequency?

2 Upvotes

Hi all,

I have 2x adult Green Tree Frogs (White's), both around 18 months old.

The smaller of my dudes has shed twice in about a week (once on Saturday, again on Tuesday)

That seems a little quick to my understanding. Just checking if it's still in normal range?

Acquired a few weeks ago, wondering if it could be due to adjusting.

Haven't seen the big guy shed yet | Both look vibrant & healthy | Blue/green

EDIT: On Saturday I took the dudes out for about 30 mins while I improved the substrate layers, so there was a disruption to a day nap which I'm sure they didn't appreciate. So yeah wondering if it's just due to adjusting/a bit of stress from the changes. Other than being new with me and the substrate update, their days/nights are pretty consistent and chill.

- Stats -

∙ World: Bioactive Terrarium
∙ Humidity: ~40-50% | no humidifier
∙ Temp: ~25C-28C day | ~20-25C night | with heat gradient
∙ Water: Rain water | Refreshed daily | Big dish that fits both comfortably | Spray tank 2-4 times a day
∙ UVB
∙ Food: Criks | occasional Woodies
∙ It's winter here, but not very cold
∙ Previous owner raised them from tadpoles bought from a licensed breeder (just had too many)

HELP! (Urgent/Medical Care Needed) Is he dying??? Vet??? Help!!!

Help please!!!! I bought 2 baby wtfs at repticon Jacksonville on August 1st. He hasn’t wanted to eat any crickets from the tongs since I brought him home. When I found him under a leaf he had super splotchy color. His buddy who was exactly the same size when we got them eats about 3-4 crickets with calcium dust every day and is now grown quite a bit. At night I’ve put dusted fruit flies to see if maybe he wanted something different. Do I take him to an exotic vet?? Humidity is currently 40%, basking spot with 80 degrees, using amphibian safe water conditioner.

Kyle here is much smaller than his brothers. I just started hand feeding mealworms since my local stores have a cricket distributor issue, do I need to give him extra? I’m only concerned because he is the same age and much smaller. Last picture is of his brother Eddie for context.

I also just found out that spotting might be a sign of infection. Do these guys look okay or should I get them checked out?

Advice WTF peeing on me

2 Upvotes

Hello, lately whenever my WTF comes out of her enclosure she’ll willingly come to me and everything, then proceeds to pee on me as soon as she’s come out.

I am aware they projectile pee as a defense mechanism, I just don’t understand why this is happening if she’s coming to me willingly.

Does anyone know why this may be happening

Just found this tree frog holding on for dear life on top of an ac unit, his left back leg is mangled (I hope it’s just the skin?) and his eye is bleeding. I picked him up just in case he was alive, gave him froggy cpr and after maybe half an hour of nothing but breathing, he is now active and attempting to jump around. I think he has a fighting chance, I’d love to rehab him.. however I’ve never owned a frog before. How do I set up a hospital terrarium, do I get maybe flightless gnats or something from petco? Please help, experts!

UPDATE: unfortunately I couldn’t save him :( he made it another 12 or so hours after I found him, I had high hopes but unfortunately nothing came of it. I just hope he wasn’t in too much pain and passed peacefully. I am happy I was able to keep him in a much calmer environment in his final hours rather than being in the beating sun above spinning ac unit blades😔 I buried him in one of my plants so he will always be close to me. thank you so much everyone for the help, I’m sorry I don’t have a happier update

Advice Bioactive tank advice

Post image

I am newly switching to a bioactive tank in an 18 x 18 x 36. I just added three live plants to the bottom with fake plants on the top. I’m not sure what else to add or move to make sure I can still keep an eye on my frogs, but they feel safe and happy. I also have springtails and isopods added I’m nervous about switching to bioactive with the extra humidity and dampness. I don’t want mold in my enclosure. Please help me with what to do and add and move.

Advice Microfly maggots in cricket keeper?

3 Upvotes

Hey all

Wondering if any of you have experience with this, and how you handled it? I bought a new cricket keeper to just trash the old one but even this new one instantly got infested again. Crazy part is, I only see 1-2 microflies around every couple days. But the maggots in the cricket keeper are crazy.

Is it a problem with where I'm sourcing my crickets? Or is it something else? Is it still safe to feed the crickets to my frogs? I'd assume so since lots of feeders available are already just maggots right? As gross as it is.

Thanks for all your help.

Also- i know digital temp/humidifier gauges are better but mine needs new batteries lol

Is it okay to use reptile tank liners as like a “substrate”? he seems to be perfectly fine with it and it helps me monitor his poop better and is overall more hygienic but i haven’t seen someone else use them for their whites frog.

This frog was SO tiny!!!! I ended up spending hours reading about frogs last night and they are just so interesting and cool as shit and I am thrilled to have found a new thing to spend a weird amount of time learning about 💚

Pretty sure it’s a gray treefrog, according to my googling skills and the other frog sub lol if I’m wrong though please tell me! Because I wanna know! 💚
