Rhacophorus reinwardtii

I have noticed her nose is a bit roughed up. .

Men..they like it so rough.

Fingers crossed that they breed for you. I really like these frogs. Lots of character.

Thanks John, but so far nothing.

Watch out for keeping them in to long,
the roughed up nose can be a sign they are being to wet over a long time.
Also had them in amplexus in the rainchamber, but no eggs seen.
The female died shortly after and also had some marks on her from the humidity.

Hopefully you manage to breed them, i realy like to steal you're method then

At the risk of sounding stupid..Why do their noses get like that?
Has there been any news?

Some frogs will rub themselves raw against the walls or top of a terrarium while attempting to escape.

Yes, bumping into the glass is one cause.
But in a extreme wet or dry environement they are sensitive for developing some wounds due to the drie or wet atmosphere.

Just like humans that have dry skin that can become sore, or fungues that develop due to moist conditions like athletefeet or diaper rash.
Frogs have that as well, for most tree frogs that need a great contrast in seasons i witnessed this as well.
For my reinwardtii that developed this, it was clearly caused by keeping them in the rainchamber for an extended period of time.

For my tree frogs, when i put them in a rainchamber i give them 3-4 days,
if they didn't do anything i put them dryer again and start over.
In my experience, if they haven't proceeded with the amplexus after 3 days it won't work out that time.

Not all men.
