    Default Missing froglet!!!!

    I put a froglet into my terrarium last night and i cant find him today! i have a screen lid over the top, i dont know how he could have gotten out. I hope he is only hiding in the moss but im not too confident he is. Any ideas where he might have gone if he has gotten out?

    I lost one last weeked and I also have a screen top. He must have pushed his way through. I searched all over the room but couldn't find him. later that night when it was completely dark and quiet. I heard him.... he climbed out of a dresser drawer and walked down the side.

    Hope you find him/her!

    Found mine too... he was sleeping in a vase right next to the tank. I never would have looked there.

    You are both very lucky - tiny froglets are almost impossible to find, particularly treefrogs. Get a real terrarium lid and some clips, like Laura said. If you live in the US, Petsmart and Petco sell lids for most standard tank sizes, and the clips to hold them on.

    I recently got a screen top for my 2.5 gallon tank from Petco or Petsmart, don't remember which. When I got it home, I discovered it doesn't quite fit flat on the tank. My solution to keeping the tank's occupant inside was to place a critter keeper on to of it. That works for me!
