What Room Do You Keep Your Frogs? (Poll)

[Tropicok]

The White's tree frog is in an Exo-terra tank in the front room where it is part display/room decor.
The D. auratus, fire-belly toads and tiger-legged tree frog are in a 2nd bedroom which is a more temperature controlled area and where I also winter my redfoot tortoises.
I keep the mealworms and crickets in this room as well. I live in a small, 2-bdrm. house so this is called the "critter room."
I have a small pile of compost in corner of yard which yields excellent nightcrawlers for food.
I use the kitchen counter when I landscape the glass tanks.
The red wigglers worm are kept outside in a tub (I have them busily making worm tea for fertilizer). Worm tea if very diluted is excellent food for terrarium plants and orchids.

I keep all the frogs in the living room, mostly because that's the room I'm most frequently in and I just like to sit and stare at them for extended periods of time. I keep all the miscellaneous frog stuff in the covered part of the bookshelf. I had no idea when I got into frogs that they would require so much other stuff!

That's great! Thanks for posting a picture! I have thought of where to move my frogs to so that I can watch them. My firebellies are in the best spot in the kitchen. I even watch them while I eat. But my Red Eye Tree Frogs are in my kitchen as well right now and I actually pull a chair up sometimes to sit and watch them. But sometimes it takes over 30 minutes for one to actually move positions. So, by that time, I've fallen asleep in the chair. I'm not getting much visuals from them unfortunately. But they are lovely. I'm wondering if having them in my bedroom would be best. But then if I have friends over I do not want to have to take them to my bedroom to see the sleeping frogs. So, it's a big debate that is going on in my own thoughts. Not sure what to do. In the meantime, I am lacking sleep from staying up trying to watch them and getting up extra early to watch their last moves before they go to sleep.

I keep all my amphibians between two rooms at the moment. I have a "warm" room and a "cold" room set up here in the basement.

I just bought a new house, and currently have some serious construction going on in the new Critter Cave in the basement there. Then, I will have my cool temp amphibians on one side of the room, and my warm temp amphibians on the other with my office sandwiched between the two.

Nice. I am in the middle of the same situation. Do you feel like starting a thread on your progress. We appear to have similar needs and I would love to see your ideas. I have no idea how I want to design this space.

Before recently moving, I lived in a studio apartment, so it was all just one room. I did try to separate it with furniture, however. So technically....I had my White's and snake in the living room area, my leaf frog in the bedroom area, and my fish on the counter between the kitchen and the dining room.

Now, I have my leaf frog, snake, fish, and my friend's golden tree frog in my bedroom, and the White's in the dining room of the house I'm staying at.

I work at a pet store, so I usually just buy crickets when I need them, since I'm at the store 5 days a week. I have a critter keeper of mealworm babies (a lot might have died....when the beetles died, and I got so swamped, I totally forgot about it. Weeks later, I started packing, and found mealworms). My family hates my mealworms and waxworms in the fridge, and hate the pinkies in the freezer even more. And...months after I had moved out the first time, they were still finding crickets. They're glad to have me back.

Well, initially I had kept my Red Eye Tree Frogs on my kitchen counter next to my Fire Belly Toads. But I have now moved the tank to my home office with another spare tank that I want to fill with more tree frogs this summer. Here is before and after:



BTW, I plan on changing the picture on the wall to a poster of frogs. Hopefully something I took a picture of, since I am a part-time photographer. lol
