Default Malaysian Horned Leaf Frog

I know i should have done the research first and i usually do, but they were so nice and just the right price hehe. Cant seem to find very much info on them so if anyone has anything to share, or a link to a really good care sheet then please fire away

Thanks

I think you provide a humid forest style set-up. So you know some leaf litter for them to hide in, cork bark to hide under(maybe make a little hide out of it for them). I'd imagine a decent sized shallow water bowl would be a good idea, with regular misting. Heatmat on the side I'd guess, though I'm not exactly sure on temps, I'd guess 24-26c?

I don't think their all that active, usually sit around camouflaged waiting for prey to come pass.

That's just a general guess from the fact they come from the forest floor. I couple of people here have them though, so hopefully you'll get some better advice.

yeah tbh it was only a guess. Not sure what asian forest temps are like.

If I had them I'd keep mine at room temp, only because my room is warm, 25c right now without radiator on.
