White's Tree Frog Questions

[Kurt]

to expand on the question of temparature and lighting, would a 60 watt incandescent plant bulb be to bright for the frog, or should a red bulb be used instead?

Depends on the size of the enclosure. In a ten-gallon tank, a 60 watt incandescent bulb will cook whatever lives in it.

I'm housing my White's Tree Frog in a 25 gallon tall terrarium (for now) and as the warm season closes up I need to get a good heat source going for the tank. I need something that will bring the temparature about 5 to 8 degrees higher,

Is it okay to keep 2 white's in one 20gallon? *mentally preparing myself for if I decide to get a second one*

Its probably ok in a twenty high or extra high, A twenty long, not so much.

I recently put 2 in a 20 gallon and it didn't go well. I had to upgrade. Of course now they are in a tank that's almost twice the size and they both want out... maybe it's because it's their first night and everything seems new to them or maybe it's the thunder storm. But I would say 30 is better for 2.

Thas what mine are in.

I have realized the impractical nature of feeding a pet frog crickets every single day. (crickets get stressed out easy and don't like to eat when you just moved them)

Thus: Would 3 every two days be okay? (For 1)

[Kurt]

Sure.

[Tom Highum]

I have never fed any of my animals everyday.

[Crystal6]

Cool. We'll see how it goes. *excited* One more day of waiting.

Just be real careful and monitor it vigilantly.
