Fear not ginger or lee... Whatever... Lolo.. here is a caresheet. Anyone with extra info please add. Same as a red eye. Just no higher than 78 degrees f.Just my 2 cents.

[Leefrogs]

Thanks Mike, Cheri, and Thomas!! Oh my, I need a laptop! And a camera over 8 pixels. The detail in these guys can only he apreciated by the human eye, or a 300$ camera. Camera on the phone is my only mode of sending Picts-- again sorry. When they grow the Picts will look better!! Lol

[clownonfire]

Ginger, congrats! I can see them in your new pictures. How are they doing? And how are YOU doing?

[Leefrogs]

Thanks Eric, I'm good. Missing boy came out early to hunt. And I felt better then

[Leefrogs]

Well my little male(guess) is almost sleeping upside down to get to glass with the light on it. I know I've been told to keep them cooler, it's 78 in there now and 70 at night. But I think I'll creep up to 80, as he seems to want more warmth. Midway up the tank the humidity is at 80%, so it maybe a lil dryer where they are.

I've seen the poop, but I think it's the females, as it's on her side of the viv. The male looks thin to me still, and although I've seen him hunt, I want to fatten him up. Her hip bones no longer show as sharp. We'll see if she poops again soon.

Crickets keep drowndibg in pool dispite it having 3 ways to climb out. They're so small I guess. And after misting Sim and Ool climbed in water droplets, maybe too young to bathe. So I'm going to eliminate the pool and temporarly turn it into a feeding bowl.


Any other sugestions?

I would follow Mike's suggestion and not go over 78. Also keep a water bowl for soaking. True pin head crickets can drown in simple waterdrops..just clean out the bodies the next day.

[Leefrogs]

just an update

Both are filling out and growing. 1/4 an inch in growth in just two weeks!!
Sim and Ool are almost an inch and a 1/4 now. Color changes from mint, to blue, to teal, to blush, to purple to bruise colored. Totaly amazing, and so awesome.

Anyone else get some of these?

[michael novy]

I had my original pair of red eyes for nearly 7 years, and they were purchased as wild caught adults. The parent group to my annae is now 5 years old and still going strong.

Hell I had my wild caughts for 9 years before they dropped off. I imagine they have a life expectancy of 11-15 years from start to finish.
Just a thought.

[Leefrogs]

That's awsome Mike!! I'm so gratefull for any info on these, as there nothing on the net!!!

[bshmerlie]

Glad to hear your frogs are doing well. Keep us posted.

[clownonfire]

Very happy for you and your frogs, Ginger!

[Kisa]

I can't wait to see how your frogs mature and grow Ginger, I'm happy you're all enjoying each other!

[Leefrogs]

I'm thinking about changing my snake back into his 33, as he doesn't use all if his 75, or building 2 tanks. One 100 gal fir the wtfs, and one for the annae, what would be minimal fir them? 55? 75?

And my i say thanks again to Mike and Tony. As they are the obeswith experiance with these guys. I know Tony said his is in a 6' viv. But that was for breeding right?

[Tony]

I would go with the 55, or larger if you can. Whether you plan to breed or not they are very large, very active frogs and will appreciate the space.
