We have 2 waxy monkey frog babies bought from lll reptile. they are both 1"to1.5" when we got em. one was greener than the other. the one greener has a bigger appetite and is growing faster.. the other is kinda beige to a light green and only eats a couple crickets and then sleeps. he/she is eating but never gets bright green like the other one. now my question....Is this alright to be not such a brilliant green like the other one.. is there reasoning behind it??? (I might be paranoid for the lil fella lol)
Im not sure about the coloration, but if one is outgrowing the other, I would separate them to be sure that one is not out-competing the other.

thats what i have been doing for the last 3 feedings is i would isolate the liller frog and dump crickets within his grasp. would only eat a few maybe four and then lose interest (possibly full) then either sleep or soak in the water. i mean his lil belly looks plump when resting but when its climbing on branches it kinda looks a lil slim.. i would load pics of the two but i dont know how. and thank you for the reply.. are these frogs known to compete for food or territory?? I think i figured out the pic upload..
that pic doesnt really do justice for their colors but you can see the size difference
I think they look pretty good actually...
During mating periods, waxies can sometimes get aggressive towards the dame sex, but i doubt that is an issue right now.
3 or 4 crix is a pretty good meal for them. I'd say things are going well. keep doing what you're doing.
