Hey all,

I have a really wonderful Whites Tree Frog, super cute and has a great personality- I've had him for 3 months now and he seems happy and healthy - EXCEPT he recently has been shedding quite often-twice a week!

I use treated tap water, and clean his tank regularly. He seems to be active and on his normal schedule apart from the shedding. I rarely handle him bc I get nervous about bacteria etc. His tank is normally around 70-80of and I try my best to keep the humidity down to 60-70.

I live in New Orleans and since it has just hit hurricane season it has been very humid - Sometimes 70-80% Could the excess humidity be a cause? Or the general summer heat?
I didn't think that they shedding pattern would change so drastically from a growth spurt so I haven't thought about that possibility- though he has been getting a bit bigger.

I am so new to owning a frog I have a hard tine judging "normal" and I really love my little dude, wouldn't want him to be sick!
