    Default Fat or healthy Grey Tree Frog

    To fat? Do I need to slow down on feeding? They will eat 2 to 3 small red runners a day.

    I just want to keep them that way, they just seem to be getting fatter. I thought about feeding them every other day but then the guilt sets in as I watch TV and they are right next to me glaring down at me as if to say "where’s the roach".

    If it's a guy, he's just a smidge pudgy. If it's female, that's about right. I feed mine about 3 crickets three times a week.
    I have a frog. She's fat and green. Her name is Gertrude, because she is fat and green.

    My male & female are the same size. The only way I can tell the difference is Willow has a dark throat.

    I found. A wild Grey Tree Frog outside my apartment last spring and well it must have been well fed because he/she was just a little smaller than yous(weight wise). Looks healthy to me.

    PS, Willow? Like the movie Willow?

    For tree frogs I like to use names associated to native trees. We have several types of Willow trees and my female is named River after the River Birch.

    I gotcha. That's unique. I like that. I'm pretty sure no one has thought to name their tree frogs after trees.
