Dumpy Love

[Tanya]

Meet Morton and Hugo

This is Morton.

This is Hugo

This is their house.

One of them croaks during the day, I thought they sleep during the day? Morton likes to sleep under the uvb light. I worry about his eyes but, I guess he knows best, right? I was wonder if I could house a blue dumpy with my guys or if I decide to purchase another dumpy is there an introduction phase or do I just put them in? One more question, I keep them in my bedroom but, hubby likes it cold in there. The temp is around 73 all day but I provide and under the tank heat pad and a blue heat light, both of which I keep on all day, is that OK? Humidity jumps from 40 to 50. At 40 I give a spray and it goes up.

Thank you for taking the time to read my post.

Cute little buggers. You don't need UVB lighting, so I don't know if it's hard on them or not. I just run a red light (watts vary pending season) for basking which keeps the spot around 90 degrees while the rest of the viv varies from 72 on the bottom to 85 on top. I have 4 in the Exo Terra 36x18x36. You can put the blues in together with the other WTF, but I wouldn't put another one that size viv. These are big frogs and LOVE their space to move around in. You do need to quarantine them for a minimum of 30 days and get two clean fecals done to make sure the new isn't bringing any nasties into the communal viv.

They are very pretty frogs it looks like they have a great cage

Thanks guys. I thought the uvb was so they could prcess the calcium? Speaking of calcium, my guys hate the taste. They spit out any roaches I dust. Little buttfaces. Lol.

So did mine, then I switched to the Repashy Calcium and they don't even notice it.

Very cute frogs, thanks for sharing. Although low UVB (2-5 level) will not harm frogs; they can't produce CA out of it like reptiles do. You need to add supplements to their food and if they spit it out, try another brand like Repashy. It's important that you provide at least an 85F basking spot and maintain the proper temperature parameters, more info on that in here: Frog Forum - White's Tree Frog Care - Litoria caerulea.

You can add another frog (after quarantine) if the enclosure provides space for all the frogs and they are all of a similar size to prevent smaller ones from being eaten. Good luck !

I would try a different calcium/vitamin powder and see if you can get them to eat it that way. And please make sure when you add another frog, that if nothing else you at least get a frog that is the same size! Don't want any dead frogs!
