One of my frogs do that but its usually when i pick him up and he doesn’t realize it, I think its because I scared him. I’m sure its urine though.

Have had my dumpy tree frog for years now, but now when I hold him, he squirts out all this liquid all over me. I’m not sure if it’s pee or what? He never used to do that. Does anyone know if that’s actually urine or why he’d be suddenly start to do that now,when he didn’t for years? Thank you!

If your white tree frog is hungry, you will know! Put a few small crickets in the habitat and see what happens. If they frog is hungry, he will pounce all over the food. If he is not hungry, he will show limited interest or none at all. Be careful not to overfeed your frog. Whites tree frogs have a reputation for eating non-stop if you allow them to!

The Crickets have to go, I have about 20 large crickets in a kricket keeper and they have maged to get their body half way out, past the tubes, into my room, this is after 2 massive escape attempts. If i put the calcium on them, can ifeed my dumpy only meal worms?

If your going to keep more than one frog in a cage make sure they are of the same breed, size and sex. Unless you want to breed them. When you buy them at commercial pet shops like pet supermarket they tend to be malnurished. Just keep feeding them fresh meal worms, waxworms and crickets everyother day amd make sure their cage is clean amd free of chemicals. Because the are malnurished they are prone to parasites and infections. Also watch out for red-leg. They’re legs will literally turn red on the bottom. If that is the case they will probably die, cause of death: malnurished. As far as knowing how many to feed them depends on the size and condition of the frog. Usually a 3in frog, like mine, eats about 10 meal worms every two days. Or I get a dozen large crickets and dump him in his cage and they are gone in about 3-4 days.

Personally, I have no experience in keeping more than one frog. I currently have one whites tree frog. Edgar is my first pet frog and I have kept him alive for six months. However, I have heard that it is not a good idea to mix frog species together. When your Dumpy frog gets older, she might eat your Eastern Grey Tree frog. I have also read that frogs secrete chemicals that can be harmful to other species. As I said, I am not an expert. I love listening to Grey tree frogs. Maybe some day, I will get one as a pet. Did you catch your Gray Tree frog or buy her from a pet store?

Hello I own an Eastern Grey tree frog and just bought a white’s dumpy. I have them in the same tank for now. The Grey is 2 1/4 inches long and 2 inches wide n i believe to be a female. Its a decently sized frog n i keep it well fed but dont over feed it. The White’s is two inches long n just shy of n inch wide. I believe it should be safe from the grey, but when the white gets full grown will the grey be safe?
