Whites Frog cage help?

[Lanky]

so update i got 4 itty bitty guys. ill upgrade when they are bigger but the cage has small slits for tubing for misters but the problem is the slit leaves a open for a couple of the frogs to go thru. what ive done is filled it with paper towels and duct taped the paper towels in place for now but is there anything better i can do.

That's what I did with my Exo Terra. My Whites Tree Frog is about 2 1/2 inches so not nearly as small as your guys.

I just took some toilet paper/towel and stuffed it back there for now. He hasn't tried to get back there since, nor the crickets I feed him. I don't know if the duct tape would work or is safe, but the toilet paper/towel has worked great for me. Just make sure to pack it in tight so they can't squeeze through, and make sure to check none have gotten back there if you can't find one.

Thanks,
Alyssa

yea i check about 3 times a day and the duct tape only touches the Paper towel i made sure so it couldn't touch the frogs in anyway. btw how do you feed the smaller frogs i got one froglet about the size of my thumbnail and im worry about him/her eating? yesterday i tossed a bunch of crickets into the cage and all four of my little guys were hunting and hitting the crickets

Glad to hear it's working out!

I've never raised small Whites Tree Frogs as I got my guy when he was 2". However I would assume that putting crickets in the tank would work out fine, just make sure no one is losing weight. If you're worried you can always tong feed or use a feeding container.

Good luck!

How often do you feed i planned on everynight till they get bigger

[Alyssa Martin]

From my research feeding every night is ideal.

Since my guy is an "adult" I feed every 2 days. However for little frogs feeding everyday is ideal until they are adults, which you can switch to every 2 days.

Again just watch for weight loss or weight gain.
