OMG - White's Tree frog Approved!!!

[Justikanz]

Not much said... It is entirely up to the importer to provide the information... I would still say we might want to do some research and share the information here... In case the information might be misunderstood while in publication (less words used might give wrong meaning, etc) or wrong information is passed or the retailers simply bo-chap...

[Quixotic]

The leaflets are okay but I am not sure about the posters. How much information can be included in the poster?

The websites that I have visited has pages of information. It would have to be a huge poster to include all that. So I would agree that if the information is merely a summary, then it may not be as effective as thought.

In any case, the websites that I found while researching.

The last one above is most interesting.

Will see when I have the time to digest and write up the information... Afterall, the first time a frog had been approved for sales and it might really create a buying frenzy... Hopefully, there will not be a cute froggie cartoon movie coming up soon!...

Didn't know that White's tree frogs were that treasured. They're really common in pet shops around here and I usually pass them by.

Red eyes are a different story though.

there's a local hokkien saying: "When you can't get a fish, even a lowly shrimp will do"

Hope AVA will add these lovely frogs on their list someday. , Love to see more of these critters here, but I agree folks here need to learn more on maintenance and upkeep and not buy on impulse.

now I wonder... is it time to set up a herpetological society or some club to educate the public?

[CacaManiac]

that would be really Great for those interested to enter Frogdom... people like myself...
but for now, just a sub section in the forums would do..

Are the White's Tree Frog on sale yet?

Haven't seen any on sale in the LFS yet. But since it is supposedly under quarantine at QH, I guess it won't be long.

[webbie180]

Maybe LFS doesnt know can sell now. Havent seen any too, been looking around.

[Fei Miao]

Drop by QH yesterday evening, the frogs are currently on sale... but the fellas seems skinny.

[davwong]

Did you get any and how much they are selling?

[Fei Miao]

No, I didn't get any, my vivarium is only a 1ft cube, IMO too small to house these critters.

[Quixotic]

I am assuming there are instructional leaflets and posters for the sale of the frog.

Were they useful to anyone who basically has zero knowledge in their husbandry?

[webbie180]

Price of frog????
