How do you tell they are gravid ??? I been trying the way u had taught me feed them for a week and then 1week in the rain chamber.
6males to 3females ,been hearing call from my males and lots of actions going on in the rain chamber but after 2-3 days amplexus they just separate and no eggs , remembered that I even on tthhe rain chamber during a rain storm!

your females are not being recessive at the moment... they will get there. Give it time. You can tell by the sides of the female and how fat they are. Keep it up..like i said it took me 3 seperate times (2 months) until my females started putting out on the regular. One thing,,, if you flash lights on them at night they will get disturbed. Leave the frogs alone.. no lights at night (unless its an LED BLUE light simulating moonlight)...if you can put a towel around the glass (NOT ON TOP OF THE STREEN) do that so they dont get stressed over your surroundeing environment...just make sure they have good ventilation. I would advise getting plant clippings for the bottom of the tank in the water so you can put crickets in the rain chamber without them drowning..... the less handling the better.

Hi,
Just seen your post about the frogs looking GRAVID, sorry but I'm a newbee and now concerned this is a worry. My female green tree frog in the last few weeks seems pretty fat. I havent tried to mate my frogs and dont have a rain chamber. I have two males and one female, about 1.5 years old. She is alot more greedy than the other two though, so thought she was just getting a bit fat.
What does being gravid mean? Is it that they are ready to breed? And is it ok if they don't breed.
Thanks in advance for any help on this.

Hi wendy I am no pro in tree frogs as I am also learning but I could say gravid means that your female frogs have eggs in them which usually you need to conditions them a dry cool period and then a hotter humid conditions and power feeding is needed before the female have eggs..correct me guys if I am wrong like I said I am no pro.

Day 2 the eggs started to become bigger and lot of them look the same as the first 2 clutches of infertile eggs that was lay 1month ago , could it be my problem as I would cut out the leaves and hang them on fishing lines in a pail and cover the top could could that be the reason of too humid and no ventilation causing the eggs to spoil?? Could you guys with breeding retf share how are the eggs keep? Do they need to be keep in a well ventilated area but at the same time with high humidity ?

Being gravid means the female is full of eggs and ready to breed =)
