Owning a tree frog has taught me a lot. How important water changes are, the importance of keeping the proper temperature, and above all, the joy of seeing that smiling face stare at that bag of crickets.

Some back story, I got my frog, Cecil, in early 2014. I just couldn't resist his smiling face. I did my research after I brought him home.

My fluffy buddy is a white tree frog of the Indonesian variety. His species is also found in Australia. That variety is turquoise. They can change their color and are often very calm and lazy.They catch their food by waiting for it to cross their paths because they waste little energy in stalking their pray. In captivity these frogs are prone to obesity.

Since i have had him, i found that he is very photogenic, indeed a meme worthy amphibian. I think everyone that owns a reptile should get to do this at some point.

First get your materials. I used a box, moss, foam, hot glue, and paint.

I used the box as my base and reinforced it with tape. I then began to glue my foam piece together.

After you glue the base and foam piece together you can paint it.

Then the final step is adding the moss and watching your own pet enjoy.
