Re: Grey Tree frog trying to hibernate
here is a pic i just got. they guy i was concerned about is the guy on the bottom. i have been spraying them 3x a day. i can increase that, but it seems very humid still. he does not look skinny when he's sitting like this, but if i stretch him out, he seems a bit thin, unless all tree frogs just look slender when they are stretched out.

He looks very healthy to me! He might just be an odd duck lol. Do you have anything you could measure the humidity with? Maybe cover half your screen top (if you haven't already) so that it retains more humidity beyond the spike at misting time.

Re: Grey Tree frog trying to hibernate
thanks to both. the humidity is ok, it's an Exo terra and it's 24 tall. the screen at the top has very small holes, so it keeps humidity pretty well. maybe i was just overreacting to him trying to bury himself/herself. i am going to the hamburg pa reptile show dec 6th, and i will see what i can find for telling me humidity.

Re: Grey Tree frog trying to hibernate
I would agree he looks fine. As a matter of fact though, are you sure it is a he? It occurs to me if one is male and the other female that could explain a difference in appetite. I also agree you should get a humidity gauge, these guys in nature don't need ridiculous humidity, but our homes can be very dry. With that said, I suspect your humidity might be too high, I never sprayed my gray tree frog save once a week (not that I really knew what I was doing, but they are pretty tough). In any case it is good to know what is going on, and if you get a lightbulb for heat you'll have to monitor humidity, because drying out could then easily occur. At any rate keep us posted, glad to hear he is looking better!

nope, sex is yet to be determined. They are only babies. their OOW date is July 21st and a few days after. They have always been good eaters.

I'm not sure there is anything cuter than a baby grey tree frog <3
