    the crickets won't be able to climb out of the bowl. they cannot climb glass. Lynn's suggestion of covering the sides of the glass is spot on. it will make your little phib friend fee more safe and secure and he/she will acclimate easier.

    as far as a buddy for him, i would suggest getting the hang of it with the one you have for a few months and then go from there. the most important thing you can do is heed any and all of the advice Lynn has to offer. the lady knows her red eyes. plain and simple. in my opinion, going against her advice would be foolish and detrimental to your frog.

    Sounds great! I definitely respect the opinion of the mod with 2k posts ~

    When he was asleep, he was a light green colour, and when he woke up to eat, he turned a darkish green colour. But he has some spots of the light green on him now.
    What's going on?

    This is normal, right?

    And I put a small bowl in there. The only one that would fit.
    The crickets haven't crawled out yet, and I'm sure they would if they could. Does this work?

    And I covered the tank just now!

    I don't have any paper bags or anything like it, so I'm using face towels until I can get some. Should I buy some of those fancy wallpapers to put on the inside of them?

    Thanks, guys~ You're a great help so far :3

    Hi Angus

    When he was asleep, he was a light green colour, and when he woke up to eat, he turned a darkish green colour. But he has some spots of the light green on him now.
    What's going on? THIS IS VERY NORMAL

    And I put a small bowl in there. The only one that would fit.

    FEED HIM WELL- HE WILL NOT OVER EAT -YOU CHOSE THE PROPER SIZE CRICKET
    YES, THIS WORKS REALLY WELL--- DON'T FEED THE CRICKETS IN HIS BOWL.
    REMOVE THE UNEATEN CRICKETS THE NEXT MORNING AFTER THE LIGHTS COME BACK ON- PUT THE CRICKETS BACK IN THE CRICKET KEEPER ( FEED THE CRICKETS THERE)
    YOU SHOULD DUST THEM WITH : 1) CALCIUM AND VIT D3 SUPPLEMENT 2) VITAMIN SUPPLEMENT
    DO A FROG FORUM SEARCH FOR LOADS OF INFO ON THIS TOPIC - ONE VERY GOOD THREAD VERY RECENTLY


    I don't have any paper bags or anything like it, so I'm using face towels until I can get some. Should I buy some of those fancy wallpapers to put on the inside of them?

    PERFECT- THIS IS ONLY TEMPORARY - SO NO NEED TO GO THROUGH A LOT OF TROUBLE.
    AS TIME GOES ON AND THE FROG DEVELOPS A SCHEDULE OF GETTING UP WHEN TH LIGHTS GO OUT , YOU CAN REMOVE THE COVER ONE SIDE AT A TIME. PROVIDE A DAY/NIGHT CYCLE OF LIGHTS ( IE USE A TIMER). AFTER A WHILE HE WILL GET UP WITH IN MINUTES AFTER LIGHTS OUT!

    Im going with lynn on this... your terrarium..needs substrate like tree fern or coconut fiber... water bottoms is really only good when breeding them...use a water bowl instead.... i also agree with bill...stick with one for now...you can definatly get him a buddy but give it a couple of weeks..learn how this frog reacts...the color pattern on him worries me alot. My frogs never turn splotchy like that and i have 14 of them. if lynn says its ok it probably is...but it really does concern me. feel free to view my website on care of your red eye: RED EYE TREE FROG - RED EYE BASICS also we are always here to help you =)
