Crickets are escaping the enclosure before he can finish eating. I watched one. And from putting in the floor to escaping was under 1 minute. Not sure how to seal the top lip where the background and top are.more reading.
How about bowl feeding him? No more escapees

Re: The Great American Green Tree Frog Adventure.
I was hand feeding at first but I fixed the issue. I rather have him hunt for his food. Taking the advice of the posters above I used suran wrap as a temp solution and it working great. After I finish moving to the new house and settle down will research on using silicone or another filler. Yes I still need to take a photo of where the crickets are escaping. Now that this is resolved I can put 6-10 crickets in the tank with some carrots and lettuce to eat and they are fine. The frog eats about 2 a day and I think he is happy. AT night he is so loud with his croaking. Before he was very quiet.How about bowl feeding him? No more escapees
AFTER the move: REAL plants.
Re: The Great American Green Tree Frog Adventure.
Congrats, looks like your frog is doing much better and letting you know by croaking loudly.
Remember to take care of the enclosure and it will take care of your frog!
Re: The Great American Green Tree Frog Adventure.
Thanks Carlos. Yes I am trying different things. I think the humidity levels so high and the crickets he can eat any time are making him happy. He now is seen in several different places in the tank through out the day instead of just one place. Early mornings he is so loud with his croaking. Thinking of putting another Green Tree frog in there so he has company. NO RETF in this area so I will have to wait on that.Congrats, looks like your frog is doing much better and letting you know by croaking loudly
Re: The Great American Green Tree Frog Adventure.
Wanted to say that I am selling my Tree Frog and home. He will be going to a good home. I have moved over to PDF and now have 4 of them with several homes.
Thanks everyone, while I will not be in the tree frog forums you can catch me in the darts forum.
