My red-eyed Tree Frog

I got my little red-eyed Tree Frog yesterday and he's great! His water doesn't have a heater but he has UV Lights. The caresheets for this particular breed said that they strive in room temperature and heaters aren't needed, only in winter. Once my baby Bearded Dragon moves into a bigger enclosure (happening in a few weeks), my RTF is moving into the Exoterra enclosure. His name is Freddo. Bahaha


Enclosure






I love it at night when all is quiet and all of a sudden you hear this tiny croak =D He's so gorgeous.

Why are they too hard? I think they are relatively easy as long as you keep the water clean, which is hard to do since they get covered in dirt then jump in

I had so many tadpoles but they are just so hard to get feeding well, even some that feed well just seem to die anyway. I haven't had a problem with the GTF's, only the red eyes. I was going to start selling some of, but nature has taken care of that. Now I will be keeping pretty much all my Red Eyes, they are still so tiny.

Has anyone tried not putting anything other than distilled water in with them?? Rainwater and filtered water, but keep away from tap water. Might help?? I never put anything other than rain/ distilled or filtered in with my GTF's and it had great results (11+yrs worth of results mind you)

Beautiful froggy Horsy, they are very cute.
