    A local used to breed them even before they were legalized. He just sprayed their enclosure with a garden hose daily and they just bred. Lucky perhaps.
    Yes I guess some luck are involved too... trust me when I say there's enough moisture, misting, water and food as the tank is misted by a timed misting system

    Re: Calling all White's Tree Frog Owners

    Hi everybody, after looking at the pictures of the tree frog I am quite amazed that they can be kept as pets. I wonder where can I get them in Singapore so I can also have a new hobby. At the same time I will not be deprived of any information or assistance, which I believe every kind soul here will help. Thanks.

    Glad to see updates on your tank and the fact that White's Treefrogs are quite clumsy and rough, they'll will more or less destroy the plants in the tank unless they're mature enough and big enough to take the pounding from the frogs...

    Please breed the whites! You have beautiful specimens and I don't see any means by which anyone would import them again. They are legal, breed and sell at a reasonable price so more people have access to them!

    Re: Calling all White's Tree Frog Owners

    Hi delhezi, its by no means an easy feat to breed treefrogs especially the white's treefrogs because of its huge size. I know of someone whom have successfully bred them before and he did so because he had a big garden and in his big garden he had a big bird cage and in that bird cage there was a small tree with a small pond and all he did was he kept his 5-6 pairs of white's in there and mist twice daily and sure enough they breed on their own.

    But mind you feeding them is expensive because he feed them 1 pail of crickets every alternate days so you can calculate how much he had to spend on crickets alone...

    It is hard without a wide database of breeding knowledge to access from. Indeed, when you intend to breed your specimens, it is of your best interest to breed the prey items. I will try and find resources for both.

    Re: Calling all White's Tree Frog Owners

    Anyone else find crickets really smelly?

    But I guess they are better than superworms. Superworms pee whenever I catch them!

    I have yet to try centipedes for my frog... anyone tried?

    If only LFS sell dubia roaches....

    Crickets don't smell if they're not overcrowded and not subject to high levels of moisture. Feeding food that is high in moisture will definitely make your cricket holding tub smell. I have Repashy's bug burger which can be used to feed the crickets, a product which will both gutload and hydrate the crickets without leaching out excessive moisture.

    Male crickets are noisy, remembered when my dad was breeding crickets for his mantids, the neighbours knew it from the sounds.
    Give a man a fish and you feed him for a day, teach a man to fish and he will drink beer while getting sunburnt.

    Only dead crickets left unattended will smell badly, otherwise if well ventilated the smell is quite bearable. I would'nt try centipedes for my whitees... what if it bites and kill your froggies? Imho crickets is the best food resource in Singapore. I always make 1-2 trips to the cricket farm monthly, each time buying $2 worth of crickets.

    I now feed my whitees with female crickets only, the males I release! hahahahaha.
