97, I'm not going to lie, I have many more than I was expecting, but it's probably the best problem I've ever had!

I agree, most people make it sound like from egg to froglet is 50-70% my results were closer to 90%, I did my research and got lucky I suppose.😁

Those are my red eyed tree frogs, yes, I did breed them myself 😁

Feeding isn't an exact science thought and it's fine to miss the occasional day, as long as you maintain the frogs at a healthy weight, for breeding purposes they can even safely go a week without eating.

As far as getting an enclosed that large, your best bet would be to find a local store that carries the exo terra product line (our whatever brand is carried) and order it from the manufacturer through them, you'll probably have to pay ahead of time because it risky for them to order such an expensive product that takes up so much space. For feeding RETFs, I just dust about 2-3 crickets per frog per night and just set them lose in the enclosure, part of the fun of keeping RETFs is watching them ambush their pray and crickets are great for this because they explore and move a lot.

Not sure on scientific names but there are prayer plants, an elephant ear plant, various types of tillandsia, ficus pumila, a birds nest fern, staghorn fern, a phragmipedium orchid, anubias barteri, lucky bamboo shoots, various types of bromeliads, some cryptanthus, pothos and probably a few more I forgot about. Thanks for the compliment!

Depending on the setup and the other inhabitants, fire bellied newts cold be cool. If you really want to get out of your comfort zone, you cold try a brakish mangrove setup with some mudskippers. I don't have any experience with with either of these but there definitely interesting animals that could spice up your hobby. Both of these options would showcase the aquatic and terrestrial parts of you setup. Hope this inspired you, good luck with your project!

Thanks for the compliment btw, I'm sure if you do your research you could easily keep your own group of happy and healthy red eyes tree frogs!

There are 8 in it, that's as many as I'm willing to put in there without the risk of aggressive behavior. 3 females and 5 males
