Clown Tree Frogs

Found

So you are getting some?

Yes - I bought 4 @ the Repticon Expo in Utah

Congrats! They are so pretty . What are their housing requirements like?

Very similar to red eyed tree frog w/ humidity and vivarium. Needs smaller crickets. They are very shy and do well with a lot of foliage - esp ones big enough for them to hang out on. I usu buy everything captive bred, but took a chance on these that are wild caught. If I were to do it again, I would recommend CB (Michael Novy has some and is awesome - Rainforest Junkies) Ya - I should have bought from him and paid the shipping!

Clown Tree Frogs are on my want list. Could you post some pictures up of them and their set up?

They really are beautiful frogs . How hardy are they?

Sorry Heather, never saw this post!

They are fairly hardy, but sooo shy! Out of the 4, I have had 1 casuality - he was kinda the skinny one. Like I said, buy captive bred if you can! These were wild caught - they aren't the same!

Ah, no worries...when I'm off for a few days I come back to so much to read I seem to always miss a few. My tapatalk was froze up for a good week and now I've got a bunch to catch up on.

They do well in a taller vivarium with controlled ventilation. Exo terra cages are perfect, just put a piece of glass over the top.. They should have live plants with leaves strong enough to support their weight. They are easy, but very shy. If you are a night owl, you may catch a glimpse of them. Give Michael Novy a call - he has CB frogs!

How about temp and humidity?

Thanks! I just might .

About 75 degrees and 70-80% humidity

Not bad . Do they like a heavily planted home?

live plants are great - just make sure they have room to move. The leaves should be able to support their weight...

How big do the adults get?

males get up to 1 1/2 inches while females may get up to 2 - 2 1/2. There is so much info out there on the internet - I would suggest you look them up and see if they are the right frogs for you! Good luck

Great! Thanks again

Man, did you buy these early? I went to that repticon (I'm up in Provo) and I didn't see them...who did you buy them from? I have one adult male clown and have been looking to get him a friend or two. Crazy....

I was there right @ the 1st on the first day - bought from Pets and Such...
