Very strange question! One you've probably never heard before...

Strange question for ya!

My White's Tree Frog that I just got on the 9th seems to... well, smell? His tank is cleaned weekly and is spot-checked every day... Not much poo and his skin seems to smell. What's up?

Also, he's pretty small. Maybe... 2 inches? He's not big enough for large crix is he? The small ones do him no justice, not even a buldge in his belly! (But don't worry, he isn't starved, he's well fed!)

Just concerned about the smell. I'll take his tank out and give it a good once-over tomorrow after school but the odor is really coming from him... not his substrate.

I know I posted this on the tree frog forum, but I wanted to see many people's replies. Thanks!
