just got my first frog.

[armoworrior]

I've misted it quite a bit yesterday to get the tank nice and humid I will say one thing that compressed soil sucks to get started but its all good now I might eventually set up a waterfall but I don't think I'll need it

Nice pics

[armoworrior]

thanks I'm lucky to have such a nice camera to take photos with.

Eventually when you get sick of plastic plants and want to introduce a waterfall to make it aesthitically pleasing we can teach you out to build a vivarium and get all live plants... YOU WILL need a bigger enclosure though. However, thats when your ready for the next challenge =P

[armoworrior]

yeah I'll wait on that one

[armoworrior]

how do you sex them I want to name it but what an appropriate name gender wise

[kueluck]

Is this a wound? If so, make sure you keep an eye on this so it doesn't become something worse. Also if this frog is over 1.5 inch, I would say female because of the light colored throat.

Welcome to FrogForum! Looks like alot of work has gone into the setup. Best of luck with this little cutie. He/she will eat when it is ready, fear not!

Males are smaller than females, and have dark, dirty-yellow throats. Further, they croak and females don't (just some other ways to determine their gender ).

it seems like a girl to me. males usually are darker on the underside of the neck and belly. though i may be wrong. i have pacific tree frogs

... I will say one thing that compressed soil sucks to get started but its all good now ...

Was that EcoEarth? I found them hard to re-hidrate and had pieces of plastic and rope inside. Have had better luck preparing Plantation Soil bricks; but now normally get the loose form and just need to adjust dampness. Remember to mix with dechlorinated water and keep it barely damp so it starts to clump in your closed fist without dripping water out .

here is an update i cleaned her logs and now she has quit hiding behind them so much not sure why she still sits on them but not all day and night. and i started feeding her medium to large crickets instead of the small ones she seems to like them better

[CJ PELCHER]

stick to medium.. large is too much for a green tree frog

[armoworrior]

so she started doing this really funny thing where she has decided to sit on her vines with her hands crossed fingers intertwined and lays her head down over top of them. legs crossed under her if i try to take a pic of her she hops up and runs away it to the leaves. she has this look that is like dont look at me its me time go away
