What is your

[chubb chubb]

tell me what is your favorite tree frog is

[jake96]

My favorite tree frogs are:
1.Waxy Monkey Tree Frog (Phyllomedusa sauvagei)

2.Asian White Spotted Tree Frog (Nyctixalus pictus)

[chubb chubb]

nice i would love to have a waxy monkey tree frog they are so cool

[Ebony]

Hi, out of all the photo's Ive seen of tree frogs I'd have to say the Amazon leaf frog (cruziohyla craspedopus) would be the most beautiful in my eyes. But I really wish i could own a Whites tree frog.

[Kurt]

I can't just settle on one, so I will give you my top ten favorites.

1. Agalychnis callidryas, red-eyed leaf frogs (I breed these so I have to include them as a favorite)

2. Rhacophorus reinwardtii, blue-webbed flying frog (I plan on breeding these)

3. Agalychnis annae, yellow-eyed or blue-sided leaf frog (Until recently, I thought impossible to obtain this species. Now I realize, I just can't afford them, yet.)

4. Hypsiboas punctatus, red-spotted treefrog (Been trying to get my hands on them for a few years now, but no success yet.)

5. Dendropsophus leucophyllatus, clown treefrog (An old favorite, I have two, could use some more)

6. Litoria chloris, southern orange-eyed or Australian red-eyed treefrog (I have read in books that these are available, but I have to see any offered.)

7. Duellmanohyla soralia (Sorry, no common name that I am aware of. It's critically endangered, so it's not likely to be in my collection, ever.)

8. Cruziohyla craspedopus, Amazon leaf frog (Just like Ebony, I love this frog. Just never seen them for sale. IUCN lists them as "least concern".)

9. Hyperolius marmoratus, painted reed frog (Just like the red-spotted treefrogs, I just haven't managed to get any yet.)

10. Sachatamia (Centrolene) ilex, Limon giant glass frog ( A very common species of Costa Rican glass frog. Unfortunately for me, Costa Rica does not export its wildlife.)

well ebony you should try to get a whites and kurt thats quit a list you got there, you go some nice frogs listed

[Kurt]

Thanks. I think they are all quite spectacular, rivalling any dart frog for colour and beauty.

[chubb chubb]

yeah, i would love to get a dart frog but i would think they are kina hard to take care of

[Kurt]

I have darts. They're too difficult. You do need to raise your own food and you need to dust it, which is where the fun comes in.

[chubb chubb]

yeah dont get me wrong and all there beautiful and all but i dont have the time for that i mean i can raise crickets but thats about all the time i have, but not to sound like i dont have enought time to take care of my frog and snakes i just dont have the time to raise fruit flies andkeep the dart frogs all healthy and make sure there humidty is alright and so one

[Kurt]

It's easier than you think and takes less time then you think. My dart frog tank is all self-contained, with a consistant humidity of 80% and live plants that are thriving.

[Kerry1968]

By the way Ebony isn't allowed to get a White's tree frog because of the strict laws in her country.

[chubb chubb]

to kurt, yeah so its not hard to breed fruit flys though or is it
to kerry, well thats sucks

[tylototriton]

I love Cruziohyla as well. I'm kind of a sucker for any of the Agalychnis or Theloderma species though. I'm really excited that Agalychnis annae and moreleti are now consistently available.

[Kurt]

Yeah if we can just get the price down a little on A. annae.

Culturing fruit flies is easy. The tough part is timing it so you always have some on hand to feed. If you don't get the timing right you will be dealing feast and famine all the time.

[chubb chubb]

so if i was to get a dart frog which species should i get, one that would be a good first dart frog

[Kurt]

Dendrobates auratus, green & black poison dart frog
Dendrobates leucomelas, bumble bee poison dart frog
Dendrobates tinctorius (& azureus), dyeing poison dart frog

[chubb chubb]

alright well thanks again kurt

[Kurt]

You're welcome.

My favorite would also have to be Agalychnis callidryas. I've been in love with them since I was very young.
Though of course all tree frogs are beautiful.
Kurt, I believe Duellmanohyla soralia are also referred to as Brook frogs. At least that is what
Brook frog - Duellmanohyla soralia - Information - ARKive says about them.
