[imsessyful]

[deathmonkey666999]

mine has HUGE eyes lol

[ferrari4sale]

You don't want to have a skin like that frog.

[chingy95]

thats funny. how many crickets do you feed your frog a day? do you got a schedule or something for your frog? plz write back.

[Prinkkuja]

what an angry bastard :D

[cacon56]

is it realy ok for him to like, shove the tweezers down his throat or wont that like harm him in anyway? just asking

[zxeros]

yes he sure is shoving those tweezers down his throat... not

[wolfboyp54]

could I keep a whites dumpy tree frog with a cuban tree frog? the whites dumpy tree frogs are only 1/2 an inch smaller then the cuban.

[raptorking9]

Never combine frogs, they try to eat ANYTHING they can fit in their mouths, and will suffocate if they handle too large prey, a fact that has been observed many times

[MustangGTHO]

i have 2 cuban tree frogs myself and they are awesome. they will eat literally anything that can fit in there mouth

[monopita]

when I was a kid and lived in cuba, I took two of these from my backyard and put them in a terrarium (empty fish tank with soil etc) and added some lizards too, to my surprise , the lizards disappeared after some minutes, when I added more lizards, I saw how the frogs ate them. It blew my mind at that point. was kindda entertaining looking at them devouring the lizards,,, I set them free after that though.

[Sk8Mafia4lyfe]

How big do these bad boys get, how much care do they require, and, are they interesting?

[wolfboyp54]

they are nocturnal, and get about 5 1/2 inches long.  they are the largest tree frog species in the world.

[LeopardGeckoKingdom]

in the wild ive seen some about 4-5 inches. loud call too, it echos around my pond

[kycarson]

We have a snake, turtle, 2 African dwarf frogs, and fish, but I just got a Cuban Tree Frog, today. He's a baby. I named him Tony, as in Tony Montana, (reference Scarface for those of you still wondering) because he's "Cuban" and bad ass! LOL They will eat anything smaller than themselves, including other frogs, pinkies, snakes and baby birds. Our Tony will only be fed crickets, though!

[Sublimestylee859]

cool man, I got a cuban tree frog just like yours :)

[what8889]

thats one vicious freaking frog!

[bfoxk]

the thing needs to calm down...XD

[ggpalms]

That Frog is Puerto Rican! Rice and Beans anyone?

[chingy95]

your dumb, no it aint. it is native to Cuba and they say they most likely got on board of the trading boats or whatever and they ended up in the Carribeans, Florida and Puerto Rico. its not native to Puerto Rico, its Cuban

[RASMISS]

We have those thongs all over here. I hate them as they have eaten all the smaller green treefrogs but they are here to stay . Imagine green treefrogs will only survive in the thick areas of the Glades as in suburbs the cubans have taken over

[Lucadejesu2007]

this is a grey treefrog. look at his underside of his leg if it is yellow its a grey treefrog

[nickbachman]

No, this is a Cuban Tree Frog. I know what a grey tree frog looks like. This is a Cuban Tree Frog.

[zukin]

Are you crazy? The yellow stands for if it's a male or female...... I have four cuban tree frogs. Two are male and two are female.

I am not sure where you get your information from, but please search before posting.

[Circa1664]

@Lucadejesu2007 Cuban treefrogs also have a yellow under their legs.

[midgitman16]

@Lucadejesu2007 way to big to be such a tiny grey tree frog

[Herp234]

@Lucadejesu2007 Actually this IS a cuban tree frog. Cuban tree frogs also have yellow on their legs. If it was a gray tree frog, it would have a stubby snout, while this cuban tree frog a more pointed snout.

[ecclesyadudeirock]

cool stuff. my friend just got a cuban tree frog we call him monster.

[KungfuHusky]

Doesn't that make them very lazy, ala couch potato frog?

[Timotheus7]

That is a beautiful frog. I find it funny...some folks are just mortified by the videos of the "cute little mice" being savagely devoured, but say nothing at this video of a frog eating an insect. I guess animal rights don't count unless its a mammal.

[cacon56]

haha lolz

[jice12]

oooh, tweezers right in the throat! sweet frog though. Cuban eh? awsome.

[MiniDebz]

why dont u let him catch his own food instead of delivering it to him?

[nickbachman]

because if i feed it to him, there's no chance of him ingesting substrate and getting impacted and dying.

[Rl831]

Yeah i remember mine would sometimes miss and bang her face on the water bowl or a branch ( ouch ). Good idea btw with the forceps and all.

[PommeFrite]

It's always so much fun to feed an animal, isn't it?

[linZswn]

I see why you love him so much.

[noddy121]

awww

[Shioby]

Awesome!!!  That frog left a legg behind on that second meal :D
