Question

Is a White's tree frog good for people who have never had a pet frog before?

Answer 1

White’s treefrog fits the arboreal Litoria category well. Growing to nearly 4 inches long, these big frogs are also often dubbed “dumpy treefrogs” or “Australian green treefrogs” besides the more frequently used common name White’s treefrog. Typically they vary from green to brown dorsally, and some individuals appear jade or even turquoise. Tiny white spots may speckle the backs of some individuals. Like many other treefrogs, White’s treefrogs are capable of changing their color depending on environmental conditions. Light intensity, temperature and humidity levels may all play a role in the colors displayed. Two “lines” of White’s treefrogs are in the pet trade. One, blue in color, originates from Australia; the other, often exhibiting a pear to olive-green color, is from Indonesia.

Answer 2

Explanation:

As a very general guideline, feed large frogs (greater than three inches long) a few larger crickets every two to three days, adjusting based on the frog's behavior and body condition. Smaller frogs can be offered about three-week-old crickets every two to three days, and juveniles should be fed daily
