    Default Getting New Frog Need Help

    I'm getting a baby whites tree frog and have a few questions.

    1. How often should I dust its food with calcium+d3 and multivitamin when its a baby/growing and also when its fully grown. And how many insects should I be dusting?

    2.If I put crickets on my hand every time I feed it from when its a baby will it eventually automatically jump onto my hand expecting food? I would like to train it to jump onto my hand when its hungry.

    3. What are the typical signs of both genders in a young frog because I want to get at least two and would like at least one male and female. I know its difficult when they're babies but an educated guess is better than and only picking.

    With a baby whites tree frog, you want to feed it daily to every other day crickets the size of the space between his eyes and i would dust with d3 every week if there is no uv light. With the trick you may want to do making him associate your hand with chow time sounds like it could work but it wont hapen right away, it will probably take weeks or months training him. Looking for pairs within young frogs is difficult but the signs when their older is obvious, both frog genders can croak but males generally croak more and have the dark baggy throat, females will be larger than males usually.
