    Default Breeding Whites Tree Frog (Litoria caerulea)

    Hey guys,i need some help in breeding Whites Tree Frog.

    I currently have 10 full adult frog in a 4 feet x 2feet x 2feet(Height) tank with 3inch of water and lots of lava rocks and branches and wood in it with a rain bar running at a corner left side of the tank.I was wondering beside a rain chamber... what else is needed to breed them.

    1)Do i need to lower low the water temp when i am using the rain chamber?
    2)Any changes in the daylight hours?

    Thanks

    If you have conditioned them correctly then I don't think you need anything else. You must give them a cooling period of a few months though long before you breed them - have you done this?

    http://www.hylid.clara.co.uk/caer.htm I read this page last month, that gives specific times/temperatures in which to condition the WTFs for breeding. I'm just throwing it out there as I don't know how to accurate it is. I was reading this because maybe one day (in a year or two) I may try to breed them to increase the availability of CB WTFs.

    I believe that I am the owner of two WC whites and I now wonder why they were wild caught when they have been bred sucessfully in captivity.

    Hmm... mine Whites Tree Frog are from WC from indonesian... and i believe that in indonesian there is no winter. Must i still give them a cooling period of a few months though long before i breed them?

    I think that you still should, and see what happens. They will have a bigger chance of breeding if you do the cool tempature.
