Brown whites to green white

[chubb chubb]

i heard that to have your whites to turn green you need either higher temps and lower humity or the other way around i dont remeber, but i also hears it has to do with the color of the background. I cant seem to find a staright anwser so will some one help me out
thanks, Chubb Chubb

Mine change colour dependng on their background. ie when they're sitting on the bark-effect background in the terrarium, they tun brown. Whereas they turn green if sitting on their plants/vines

[Kurt]

Same here. Its a light and dark background thing, as it is will a lot of frog species.

[chubb chubb]

Ok thank you both

My White's has always been brown, but yesterday I got him a new red bulb (50w) and this morning he was green! The first time I've sen him green since I first got him, so I think temperature may have something to do with it too. I've also recently moved him to a warmer, lighter room.

I second that theory because mine is always green unless I turn the red light off and leave him there for an hour or so or unless he climbs in the water.

[chubb chubb]

well then im goin to have to put a red light on him but since last night hes been green
but i have notice since i got him at night he would turn green but during the day he would be brown

[Crystal6]

I'm stumped then since mine is reversed to that.

[chubb chubb]

i guess that what makes them different

[Kurt]

During the day, one of my White's is always brown, but after dark they are both green. Its the opposite of my red-eyes, who darken after lights off.

[chubb chubb]

yeah i just got done feeding chubb chubb and he looks like lime

[Kurt]

haha thanks katie the name just pooped right into my head one day last year and i loved it

Don't you mean "popped" right into your head?

[chubb chubb]

yeah i did sorry about that

[Kurt]

Nothing to apolgize about. I thought it was cute and funny. We have all made typos at one time or another, and sometimes they can be funny. This was one of those times. So thanks for making a "funny".

[chubb chubb]

yeah i always try to double check everything before i post it but i get in a hurry sometimes
