I'm sorry I haven't visited this forum for quite some time. I have been an active member of another forum that is directed more towards dart frogs. I just figured I would share some pictures of what's been going on with my tree frogs lately. I had them in a q/t container for quite some time as I was building my vivarium for them. It has finally finished and I put them inside about a month ago



They seem to enjoy it so far. The only thing I have left to hook up is my mistking. I am just waiting to drill the glass for it. Here are some pictures of the frogs






Well Thursday night I was hearing a lot of activity. A lot of calling and running around the tank. I haven't made the rain bar for the rain chamber yet because I wanted to give them some time to adapt but we have had a big storm sitting off the coast and it had been raining all day every day for the whole week. After hearing all the calling, I wanted to peek in there and see if I could see him call (I have never seen the call only heard it. Any time I flip the lights on to see it he stops :P) well when I peeked in there with a flashlight, I noticed the male chasing the female around and 5 minutes later he was on her back



I was very excited when I saw this. I had no intentions of breeding them yet but at least I knew I had a a good chance of them breeding once I threw in a rain chamber. The next morning I woke up to go to work and they were still in amplexus



Which was also nice to see. I was just hoping my female wasn't too stressed out by it. I went off to work and by the time I got home they had left me a present on the side of the glass



It was right above my big water feature so she picked the perfect spot.


I'm guessing I will do a water change (had some algae issues), and prepare it for tadpoles to drop. I don't want them to get stuck under the false bottom and have to tear the tank apart. Although it is screened and everything, you can never be too sure. I figure I have a better chance of not harming the eggs if I just leave them on the glass. Who knows, maybe they won't be fertile since there was no rain chamber.


Anyways, I hope everyone enjoys the pictures and I will be sure to post more if they are fertile and start to develop. I am not sure what I will be doing with all these eggs. I counted somewhere around 65 total. I am still not positive on how to take care of these yet. I have seen a few breeding sheets but nothing with specific information on them. If anyone knows of a good one, I would love to have it. Even it the eggs aren't fertile it would still be good to add to my favorites for next time. Also, how often could I stimulate breeding in the tank without harming the frogs? I wouldn't want to over breed my female. Especially since she's already breeding without a rain chamber. But I guess this is a prime example that you CAN breed without a rain chamber. All you need is some high humidity and barometric pressure
