The locals are becoming restless

[DonLisk]

Is it a full moon or are all my frogs plotting while I'm away.

Since mid last week, one of my Whites has decided to parade around the viv, covering all the glass with substrate, and cover the others as he tries to climb over them to push off the top screen.

Now tonight, my one Red Eye has found he too wants to go back and forth across the glass all night. He even slept on the front glass which has been a first since I brought him home last year. Also pick up the lets climb to the top and test the screen strength.

We named the one Whites Spidy since he has routinely done this behavior, sometimes jumping from a leaf to the glass with a loud thump or crash if he misses. He will stand on his legs on a Borm and push the top screen with all him might and eventually move off the brom and fall or give up and dive for another position to try again.

I wonder if they see themself in the reflector in the T5 fixture that just above them.
Hmmmm. looks like its gonna me a loud night here :-)

Gotta put ear plugs on my wife before they wake her up.
Wish me luck with that.

Mine go through that periodically, I wonder if it has to do the changes in barometric pressure and other weather phenomena that change with the seasons.

That could well be. I have been keeping the windows more open since its been warming up.

[DonLisk]

Well, all the frogs are restless here tonight. All four Whites are climbing every piece of glass and occassionally trying to push the top off or stacking on eash other until one falls and takes the rest out.

The Red Eyes also have been talking most of the evening.

It has to be due to the weather.

[Leefrogs]

You need a barometer. I have a really cool one, all blown glass. And then chart it.
They're probably missing their old viv though too. As that had soo much space.

[DonLisk]

I know, I know When I do the frog rack I'll think about moving them back into enclosure.

They are usually so chill except for Spidy. They all think they are Spidy tonight though. I'll be listening to falling, croaking, chirping frogs all night tonight..... I'll be laughing and smiling all night.

He just wanted to make sure you understand there it's not enough funky rainforest music going on in there!

That is good news. I'm sure their adventure around the house will be the talk of the vivarium tonight!!

Yeah, poor frog is patchy in color and still soaking.

I'm sure Spidy will tell the tale and the other will have nothing good to sad about the cleaning under the couch.

[Leefrogs]

oh, poor little guy, hope hes ok!!
I thaught it was a typical whites thing, just hiding real good. Not that he actually got out!!

He is still resting inside a cork round.
Stayed in the water dish forever and I finally took him out when it looked like his nose was getting to close to the waterline.

With his eyes closed he look like he has two black eyes.
I just got done spraying him down but starting to wonder if he needs something to perk him up or just let be and let him get the extra rest.

Spidy on the other hand is back to being spidy and all over the glass.

[DonLisk]

If I get home tonight and find the frog still in the same place and still patchy in color, should I give him a honey bath?

Poor little guy will make me sad if he doesn't perk up after his tour of the house.

[Leefrogs]

oh I hope the honey works!! Maybe some pedialite in a bath to, if he's too weak to eat.

[DonLisk]

Thanks Gingerlee
He slept all day but has moved (turned around) and is buddied up with another frog right now so if he doesn't eat then I'll try the honey first.

[ViperJr]

Glad to hear he is recovering! Your livingroom is apperently quite the unfirendly enviorment
