Need advice on red eyed tree frog

[poison]

Hey you mind posting pics of the snake? Snake/frog setups can be established in the right conditions. But if we are talking about Natrix natrix than there is a high risk that the frogs will become a meal. Just has not happened yet.

so what are you saying Daniel? can i put my pyxie in with my rock python or not? lol

i would be interested in seeing pics as well. i'm always the devil's advocate FOR multispecies tanks, if done properly. so i am very curious to see this one.

An evil Rock with a tank mate? Don't think there is such a thing lol.

Multispecies enclosures are indeed amazing if done right. Unfortunately though it usually isn't and the owners often times get lucky with no problems for a while and think they're in the clear (Not talking about the OP but in general). I've seen some very successful Emerald Tree Boa/ Dendro enclosures. And that is one I wouldn't mind trying.

oh, i agree 100%!! on all points, most of the time it is luck. i always wanted to do a mantella/uroplatus enclosure. still may one of these days.

I wouldn't mind trying dendros or mantellas with L. williamsi. Can't find them though lol.

Interesting thread regarding frogs and snakes, Ive seen in several zoos with boas and pythons dart frogs mixed in, the needs of the snake were made with the water dish and hide while the entire tank had terrarium plants. Ive seen Phylobates terrebilis and a boa constrictor housed together and in another enclosure Dendrobates auratus with colombian rainbow boas. Seems like an interesting mix

Here's some pics. I hope they show up

Concerning having different species snakes together, well mine have been together for over a year now. At first they were separated in different tanks, but my female corn snake was freaking out shortly after I brought my male python home. She went crazy enough to the point where she laid eggs! So my wife and I went ahead and put them both together in the same cage and they have been inseparable ever since.

While I think your other enclosure is very suitable for a multi-species enclosure, I'm not liking this one. First BP's need high humidity (60%+). You can not get such high humidity in an open screen fish tank especially with a heat bulb. I also don't feel like the enclosure provides enough cover for the snakes to escape each other. I would suggest adding a sand/soil mix to allow both the corn and ball to burrow.

Hey, how tall is the frog/snake cage? And how many inches of soil do you have in it?

[Gonzo88]

Daniel: I can do that soil mix, but any idea with the humidity part? I have foggers ( ones that float on water and make a ton of fog that I use in the large terrarium) but that's the only thing that comes to mind. Eli: any idea about dimensions? I can always put the frogs in a separate tank but if they need climbing space, but these are my first red eyed tree frogs.

Cover the screen top with glass or foil. You can still use a heat bulb but I would suggest you use a low wattage (40-60) to prevent the air from drying out. I don't feel like a fogger is needed so long as you limit the ventilation. In the wild ball pythons spend most of their time in humid burrows. A lot of people just look at what's above the ground and consider that their requirements. This is the case with a lot of snakes, lizards and tortoises.

And some pics of the geckos

I couldn't find my grass snake in the large terrarium but here's a pic of what it looks like

i still believe they are all better off separate.

If I was to put the frogs in a different tank, what dimensions would you recommend? Remember I'm still new to owning red eyed tree frogs
