Feed your juvenile White's
Tree Frog every day, providing a wide variety of gut-loaded
feeder insects, such as crickets, mealworms, waxworms (limit
these, as they are very fatty), butterworms and earthworms.
Dust the insects with a multi-vitamin supplement. Adults need
to be fed every 2 to 3 days, but multiple insects at a time.
Supply a water dish, making sure to change the water and clean
the dish every day. |

Provide a daytime temperature
from 75 degrees F to 85 degrees F. At night, let the temperature
drop down to 67 - 70 degrees F. Your Whites Tree Frog
will also need a basking spot, reaching inbetween 95 - 100
degrees F. Keep the humidity between 60% - 75%. For best lighting,
use an incandescent bulb and a flourescent. Getting a full
spectrum bulb isn't as important as it is with lizards, but
it is recommended. |

| A 20 gallon glass aquarium is
the best choice for a single White's Tree Frog. You will want
to provide a lot of cover; fake plants, bark, coverings, branches,
etc. Use damp potting soil, peat moss or other like material
for the substrate. |
