Whites tree frog not growing
When I got this little guy last September, I think he was newly morphed. He is active every night and eats a couple of pin head crickets everyday. Calcium and vitamin once a week. It's been almost a year and he is only slightly bigger than the day I got him. He is otherwise quite healthy.
Makes me wonder if he is a whites.
I know it's a he because I've seen him chirping.
Just took this picture when I'm cleaning out his tank.
This was taken when I first got him.

Feed him more!
See how he manages with small crickets.
Dust cal Ca and Vit D 2-3 times a week!
Puzzling !
A 1 year old Whites should be much larger.
Your suspicions may be right!
What other species of 'green' , small..... tree frogs are available in the area you reside?
Can you post additional photos so we can help you accurately ID the frog.
Is there a reason why he is kept in this QT- type setting?
You have heard and witnessed calling? If so, have witnessed an enlarged 'vocal sac' during the calling?

Whites tree frog not growing
This isn't any other tree frog being sold here other than whites. Since it is the only legal amphibian allow in the pet trade.
He is usually in this nano tall exo terra vivarium with live plants. I took him out while cleaning doing some maintenance.
He gets as much pin heads as he can eat in a small bowl, but he usually only eats a couple. Will increase the dusting frequency.
Here are some more pictures:

Yes, I saw him puffing after hearing a chirping noise.
Re: Whites tree frog not growing
That definitely isn't a white's tree frog IMO. If you want, you can look up pictures of baby whites tree frogs, and other common tree frogs in the area and compare them.
Re: Whites tree frog not growing
Wow, teeny little guy. Definitely not a whites, hopefully someone can help you Id correctly.

Re: Whites tree frog not growing
Agree, and by any means he is not whites!Originally Posted by flybyferns
Can it be one of reed frogs? Sorry no idea on who he is
Save one animal and it doesn't change the world, but it surely changes the world for that one animal!
Re: Whites tree frog not growing
My thought as well.

Thanks for all the responses. I'll go back to ask to the shop.

Someone from another forum suggested that he may be an eastern dwarf tree frog (litoria fallax). He maybe right cause their calls sounded similar.
