    Default Red eye tree frog escaped?!

    I am VERY confused and don't know what to do. My baby red eye tree frog has escaped. I have NO idea how. The top of the tank is covered with a mesh top, and i put a book on top to cover half of it. I noticed that I hadn't seen her in a couple of days, so I decided to look in the tank. Sure enough, shes not there. My room is a MESS because of my pig brother, so I don't know where to start. Im guessing I should put plants and water on the floor? Should I clean up my room first? Is it possible the frog can be hiding in some clothes on the floor or something? Please help, I was very happy to have this frog.

    I would get some water dishes and plants out for sure. Make sure you get a very secure lid on there now too, it's amazing what those frogs can slip through!

    I woke one morning to find one of my gray tree frogs sitting on TOP of the tank. To this day, I have no idea how she got out. I ended up covering the tank with screen and duct taping it on until I moved them to a new viv. It was a pain to take apart for every feeding though.

    Keep the tank closed. If tore apart my tank before and swear the frog escaped only to find him staring at me later that night from inside the tank. Red Eyes blend in really well with the plants. Check again.

    I FOUND HIM! I had searched my whole room and thought to myself, "The bathroom is the only place I haven't checked, AND the lights are off.... Might as well...."

    I walked in the bathroom, turned on the light, and boom. There he was sitting on the counter.

    All I have to say is..... WHAT A RELIEF!
