You can do a search on "whites tree frog caresheet" on google and you should get alot.
Do you have one already? They get large (4-5 in) and eat alot. They need much more room than other frogs, about 20 gal for one and add another 10 gal for each additional one. I believe they are at room temps (70s) and humidity about 60%, but please check those. They eat crickets (lots) about the size of between their eyes. They (like all frogs) need a water dish or area to soak and need to have the tanks misted (use treated water for both). Lots of hiding spaces, plants with big strong leaves (pothos is a good one).
Another place I go that have a lot of whites owners is repticzone, the forums have an area for tree frogs. Maybe I'll see you there.
Thanks.
I know they get large, right now he is in a esu create-a-cage that is roughly two feet tall and eighteen inches square. He has a big branch and an umbrella tree to climb on. He is small right now only about two inches long. I wasn't sure if they needed a basking spot or not. I am keeping him in the same general setup as I keep my crested geckos. Right now he is at room temp (75-80), misted daily, has a water bowl to soak in, and is eating like a pig.

I use a 25 watt bulb to provide a little extra heat during the day. Even when the background temps are at 80F, my white's will move up closer to the light. He seems to like basking out in the open during the day. I also have a fluorescent bulb (low UV - Chroma 50 by GE) mostly for the plants. I spray the enclosure a couple times a day, and he soaks in his bowl at night.
Hey Dawn,
Here is a good care sheet..
Be careful, alot of the caresheets aren't completely accurate..
enjoy..
