My Waxy Monkey Tree Frog is Healthy, But ...

[Heatheranne]

She IS beautiful . A bit thin though. What does her poop look like? Hmmm...


(Be careful with the heat matt inside the tank. She could get burnt. The corded should not get wet either. How bout moving it to the outside of the glass?)

Hi Heatheranne, thank you so much... I just love her. And yes, the heat map is on the inside "side" of the tank ... her poop is a little less than 1/2" long and is very dark. Probably about 1/4" around. I watched as she ate 6 small, dusted crickets this morning. She sleeps a lot and has really never been ultra active. When I got her from the the pet store they had her in an ultra humidified environment sitting on a wet napkin. It was not the right environment for her.

Before I purchased her, I did a ton of research to make sure I knew how to care for this kind of frog. I have an American toad and he's VERY easy to care for... he's almost 8 years old and as happy and healthy as every!

I don't know if the care they provided did damage to her but she seems fine now... she's just not as active or aggressive as my toad.
