White's tree frog is one of the tree frogs varieties people search for by name. This page covers what owners actually ask about it, then hands you the sourced tree frogs care guidance that applies to every variety.

Living terrarium centerpieces — humidity and live insects are the whole job.

Quick answer: White's tree frog is a variety of tree frogs. Everything on this page is tree frogs-level guidance — we do not invent variety-specific numbers.

The care below is tree frogs-level guidance from our species hub, sourced to Merck Veterinary Manual — Exotic & Laboratory Animals: Amphibians and RSPCA — Amphibian advice. It applies to White's tree frog exactly as it applies to every other tree frogs variety. We do not publish variety-specific temperament, lifespan or weight numbers that we cannot source.

The vivarium: vertical, planted, humid

A tall glass vivarium (45×45×60 cm for 1–2 small frogs, larger for groups) with a substrate that holds moisture (coconut fiber or bioactive soil), live or sturdy plants for perching, climbing branches, and a shallow water dish changed daily. Temperature 24–28°C for White's (a low-wattage heat lamp or heat mat on the side), 22–26°C for red-eyes; humidity 50–70% for White's, 70–90% for red-eyes via daily misting with dechlorinated water. Good ventilation matters even in humid tanks — stagnant air breeds mold and bacterial infections.

Feeding: live insects and supplements

Crickets and dubia roaches sized to the frog's head (a rule of thumb: no wider than the space between the eyes), gut-loaded before serving. Adults eat every 2–3 days; juveniles daily. Dust with calcium most feedings and a D3/multivitamin weekly. Occasional waxworms or mealworms are treats, not staples — fatty and chitinous. Frogs fed only one insect type for years end up with metabolic bone disease or obesity; variety is the health plan.
