Update on my previous post... now I finally got the hang of it 🙌.

Thx for all the comments made I understood how to handle them properly and I'm no longer afraid to interact with them 🥹🥹🥹

Pieces I made over the last month!

In order:
Key holder, incense burner, decorative piece, mug, and erotic frogs (also decorative pieces, very common at antique fairs, though they’re usually made of metal).

Hope you like them! And I’m open to suggestions for new pieces 🥰

Oh, and the key holder says “If everyone gets organized properly…” because it’s a Brazilian saying/joke (yes, I’m Brazilian) that goes: “If everyone gets organized properly, everyone gets laid.” So I wanted to make a pun with an object whose purpose is literally to organize keys, while also having the little naked frogs there lol. 😆🐸🔑

Reposting due to ✨artistic alterations 😂 from my original idea. I drew the three distracti-bois as frogs, inspired by u/Kuuldana comment on my last fan art.

Thinking of making this a series as it’s been fun, what else should I draw the guys as (or in the style of) ???

I’m back again, Feel like i’m in here every other month because I overthink about this constantly. My whites frog has Green blotches again, I’m 90% sure it’s misfires but just in case I put the light on and am letting it bask for about an hour. This is the only frog I have issues with my other 2 never break out and this one just ate a cricket because I wanted to make sure it wasn’t bacterial which I don’t think it is. Temp hangs around 84-88 during the day and drops to about 77-72 at night and never dips below 70. Humidity sits about 35-40 during the day and 55-60 at night. Any advice on what could be going on with this one frog? Leaving in 2 weeks for a month and don’t want to over think while i’m away.

Update on my previous post in another subreddit... now I finally got the hang of it 🙌.

The Cuban Treefrog is one of the most hated animals in the world, especially by nature enthusiasts, which I've always felt was odd and sad. You will find there is a great defecit of information out there about them that doesn't have to do with identifying and killing them. People do keep them, but it's uncommon and too little enthusiasm is given too them.

Meet Monkey. She is a 6 month old Cuban from Central Florida. She was caught as a tadpole to save her from a kiddie pool that was drying out. She survived roughly 20 siblings due mostly to how difficult it was to recreate the properties of the water they spawned in and acclimate them to clean water. The unintended consequence is she's a rather durable and tolerant specimen among her kind.

Monkey gets her name from the monkey bar trick she pulled off in her first enclosure, which is in one of the photos. She's currently roughly thumb sized. We suspect she is a girl from her ear size among other frogs the same size, but frankly it is a little too early to tell.

She was raised on fruit flies and now eats small crickets and roaches. She hates black soldier fly larva and doesn't appear to be able to digest them well, often just passing them whole. When she poops, she will often catapult it off her butt and halfway across the tank with her back foot.

Her skin changes a pretty wide spectrum of colors. From what I can tell, it's possibly based more on humidity than other factors - darker when it's wetter - but I don't want to stress her out to test the hypothesis. She's normally darker, but you'll see a lot of photos where her skin is lighter. She does not seem physically capable of turning bright green.

Monkey is fairly intelligent. She is aware her food comes from the sky human on the other side of the glass, and each night when she's ready for dinner she will sit somewhere visible out in the open. She will eventually start getting closer to the glass and staring at you if you wait too long to feed her.

She is also aware that giant hands come down and fiddle with the waterfall and plants, and she is completely unaffected by them and will stay put whenever it happens, even if her favorite neon pothos is being adjusted. She is not handled at all unless it's completely necessary, since it does visibly stress her out. Always use gloves to handle amphibians.

Monkey lives in a 30-gallon horizontal bioactive paludarium with several varieties of pothos, hoya, and moss. The forest floor is built on a PVC, egg crate, and foam platform over a hidden reservoir filled with a lava stone bio filter and air stones. A waterfall circulates the water from the reservoir at one end of the tank, down a long waterfall to a very small pond at the other end, which passes through a screen to the reservoir to pass through the bio filter and airstones again.

She likes 75% humidity and about 80 degrees F, and she likes wet, dead leaf litter so the dirt doesn't stick to her, which is the one thing I've seen that seems to make her upset. She's very patient when she hunts, but she's clumsy - often losing prey from calculating jumps poorly, but it doesn't seem to discourage her.

Anyway, thank you for taking the time to meet my girl. I tried to include a good step-by-step going back to when she was a tadpole. Have a great weekend everybody!

Don’t know if these are frogs or toads but they are everywhere I look, all different sizes. And very cute.

I found one of the smallest frogs ive ever seen outside in my backyard lol

4 months and still thriving! One of my little buddies was wandering around his enclosure last night! 🩷

I think I'm going to make more and leave them in places for people to find. They bring me much joy.
