where is she?! ive tore the room apart looking for her and nothing! my males is still there and the door to the room was closed and i think she escaped sometime last night! can i attract her back somehow?! D:
Ok I have no idea what type of frog/toad/tree frog you are talking about since you lacked that in your post :/ remember whaen posting provide all possible details every time don't assume all members know what species you keep.
Best answer I can give with almost no details is Put out water dishes... if she feels to dry she will try and find water
nvm I see this is posted in fire belly toads... and I know nothing about them =( BUT ... I think I have read the love water... SO I still say water dishes XD
I agree, thats your best option
They travel quite quickly so I would look for things such as dust bunnies pulled out of unusual areas, behind cabinets and as anywhere there may be moisture. Get plenty of dishes out around the house.
1.0.0 Red Eyed Leaf/ Frog - Agalychnis callidryas
1.1.1 Bumblebee Dart Frog - Dendrobates leucomelas
1.1.0 Dendrobates truncatus - Yellow Striped
1.1.1 Dendrobates tinctorius – Bakhuis Mountain
1.1.0 - Dendrobates tinctorius - Powder Blue
1.1.0 - Ranitomeya vanzolinii
searched the whole house so many times and set out water buckets and stuff and still no frog
Just leave the water dishes out all over... make sure they are easy to get into ... does your female respond to male calls? Maybe try playing a male call to draw her out if so....
Can it get into any vents? check around, under and in bathroom and laundry appliances... and sinks.
Update????
I still cant find her ive searched everywhere D':
im worried ima find her dried up stuck to something now
you left out the water right? even over night? not just in your room?
Many years ago, one of my four fire belly newts (newts, not toads) escaped from its aquarium. Its whereabouts remained a mystery until one day several years later when we were in the process of replacing the refrigerator in the kitchen. Lo and behold, we discovered its dry remains underneath it. Had we not replaced the refrigerator when we did, we might not have ever discovered what happened to it.
More recently, I owned a fire belly toad with a penchant for escaping. Since her vivarium was located in the basement, I was able to locate her in the same exact place every time she went missing: the sump pump.
It seems like the first thing a displaced amphibian will do is locate a source of water or moisture.
Hopefully your fire belly toad isn't trapped somewhere they can't escape from without help (like mine was in the sump pump). If I were you, I would keep making water dishes accessible on a daily basis while searching through things or rooms that contain water or moisture. Consider refrigerators, sinks, bath tubs, dehumidifiers, toilets, laundry rooms, and sump pumps.
Good luck with your search. I really hope you find her.
lil tubs of water are out and i havent seen her she might be gone :'(
constantly check in, under, around, behind, toilets, sinks, fridge, laundry machines, dish washer, pipes, windows... if they are drawn to natural light... dark areas like closets if not...
no sign i think i have to accept that shes not coming back
same happened to my first toad i had some fine leading to the top and my lid wasnt very heavy and had pushed it up and escaped. She had escaped before and was in the same place as the time before. But this time she wasnt i left water all over the place and i gave up after a week as there was no signs of her.
