    Hi,

    It's good that he is eating !

    Firslty you want to be 100% sure as to the frog species you have .
    Otherwise you and your frog are on auto-pilot !!!
    I know I would not be able to take proper care of a frog if I were in that situation.

    Consider answering all of these questions so other members can help you also !

    Simply cut/paste/ and answer.
    Important- Don't forget to add a photo ( if at all possible) so your frog can be identified.

    I think that is a Australian White Lip Tree Frog. I think these are really pretty frogs and I told that the care was similar to a Whites when I was looking into getting one a few years back. Somebody correct me if I am wrong.
