    Default terrarium location?

    I have a question about where to keep my whites tree frog. I've had him for a few months now and really enjoy him.

    I am planning to upgrade him to a larger terrarium very soon and I'm considering where to place the set up in my house. Right now he's in my home office which is quite quiet and warm. The problem with keeping him there is space - it will be a tight fit with the new terrarium. Also, the office is next to the bedroom which means we often hear him singing in the wee hours...I don't mind but my husband does. LOL

    So I am considering putting the terrarium in the living room, which would be great in that more of my friends will see it, but I am concerned about stressing the frog. There is more noise there and the temperature fluctuates (thought I could deal with that using a thermostat).

    Are whites frogs sensitive to noise/movement in their environment? Would it be better for him if I found a way to keep him in the office?

    Thanks

    You should be able to move him, but it will be a transition. When you move him, I would cover all 4 sides of the tank so that he can get used to the noise before seeing the people. Then 3 sides for a while, etc.
