Queries regarding whites tree frog.

[andfrogs]

I have never touched a roach- I lift the carton/papertowel rolls with tongs and shake it into a cup inside another container in case the cup gets knocked over or something. The first time I tried to give my beardie some, I took him into the garage and put one down in front of him. I couldn't catch it, he couldn't catch it, they are extremely fast. I'm not sure about the size of a full grown dubia, but I probably wouldn't give a full grown turkestan to a whites. They could probably handle it, just a personal preference. Plus I try not to feed off the adults. I'd say if you're still split about it, just go with the best deal you can find!

I wouldn't give a full grown Dubia to a White's either. Just too big. Then again my frogs are fairly small males.
I've never had one of my Dubias jump and my tank doesn't smell, except one time when a couple of roaches died and there was spoiled food. As long as you clean the tank occasionally it should be fine. Also make sure the top goes on firmly. My cat knocked over a bin once and the lid wasn't on. Awful!

I think your one of your frogs may be a male, if it calls more than twice in a row. You may just have to wait and see which one develops a darker color on the throat. Judging by my experience, your frogs may have another year or two of growing. But then different frogs may grow at different rates. Maybe they'll get another centimeter or two longer.

Yeah, adult Dubias are a bit too big for a big White's Treefrog. A smaller individual definitely couldn't eat one. They're good food for African bullfrogs and stuff, but even my toads at a bit over 4 inches have a bit of trouble eating adult Dubias. Turkestans are around 1.2 inches long as adults, compared to dubia's 1.8.
Males turkestans can FLY however. Now I remember another reason I went with Dubias.
