This video follows up Pt 1 where I discover Gray Tree Frog Tadpoles in a puddle in a rock at 3,199 ft summit on the Applalachian Trail in Virginia in late September. I explain how to identify Gray Tree frogs and the difference between Copes Gray Tree Frog (24 chromosomes, 2N) Diploid and the Gray Tree Frog that is tetraploid with 48 chromosomes or 4N! I break down the meaining of the greek and latin scientific names and how they relate to the organisms. I present 5 fascinating facts about Gray Tree Frogs including 1) ability to change color, 2. Ability to climb, 3. skin toxins, 4. ability to revive after being frozen at 18 degrees F and 5. their unusual places to lay eggs.

No one reading this will believe me, but I have had a grey tree frog living in my bathroom for 3 years!!!!! No cage! REALLY!!! I have a potted plant and he spends most of his time either on the plant or in the dirt. But at night he will very often climb out and climb up the window to his favorite spot above the window on the window trim work. He also will go get water and hang out in the tolliet bowl. I live alone and have to be very careful to make sure I look for him before I flush the commode. Fortunately I have another bathroom I use and he lives in my guest bathroom which is almost never used. In summer, I will catch moths and hold them in tweezers in front of him and he'll grab it and swallow it in blink of an eye. In winter, I do the same thing with very tiny pieces of uncooked fish. He loves it. It isn't as hard as it sounds to care from him because he will go as much as 2.5 weeks without eating. Once I feed him, he wont even take more food for like 2 weeks even if I try. About once a week he will go over and sit on top of the shower head which is about 8 feet from his potted plant and commode home! Its crazy but really cool. I don't tell many people because I'm sure it sounds wierd and maybe unclean to have a frog running around and living in my bathroom, but I love the little guy.

@@natureatyourdoor Thanks for the Reply, Frank. Replies like that are a great way to grow your channel and I have now watched several of your videos and find them entertaining. I recently moved to the country for the first time in my life and have therefore had lots of "Nature at your Door" experiences and love every one. I also should have told you that I learned a lot from your Gray Tree Frog video. In spite of having my "pet" frog almost ever since I bought my country house, I didn't know what kind it was or how to identify it until your video. I was also interested to learn all the other things you told us in the video. So you are doing a great service here in addition to providing great entertainment. All comments and responses, especially long ones, play into the YT recommendation algorithm so I hope in some small way I've helped more people find your channel and I wish you the best.

Just saved three of them in my wind chime. They were stuck in the pipe. One was calling out with an unusual sound, his body was very crooked and distorted in the pipe. I could tell he was stuck. I found out that this “barking” is their distress call. I was able to pull him out with a stick and turning the pipe upside down so they could slide out. All three made it out safely and I placed them in my raised bed. The chime is now in my garage, so they won’t get stuck again. Love my frogs here in the Pine Barrens of NJ!

🐸✔️✔️ Good information. We started hearing grey and Cope's grey tree frogs in our development in summer 2017. I didn't recall ever having previously heard their call, and at first I had no idea what they were. A few of them would start occasionally calling sporadically in late afternoon. But since I couldn't ever seem to locate a bird anywhere near the source of the sound, I made a guess that they were some sort of tree frog, and thanks to videos of their calls, I was able to verify it. Then in 2018, a new development was started in the huge grassy field behind our houses, including 2 new, permanent retention ponds within maybe 100 to 150 feet away from us. One night, as it started getting dark, I walked outside a few times, and heard that the frogs were calling from up in the trees, then lower in the trees, then on the ground, on the banks of the 2 ponds. So I started going out after dark, with a flashlight and smartphone video recorder, and took photos and videos of them. The difference in the calls of Grey tree frogs VS Cope's grey tree frogs was pretty obvious when you heard BOTH frogs in close proximity. So it's now simple and automatic to be able to tell their calls apart. Then I started noticing other new frog species showing up for the first time ever, including a green tree frog last year, and a bunch of new pickerel frogs living in vegetation in flower beds, or high grass. Then spring peepers popped up out of nowhere in 2018. Then green frogs were being seen hanging out in a shallowly buried drain pipe running from the rain gutters on the roof. I'd see as many as 7 green frogs living there, and as few as 1.

There's an european version of these tree frogs, hila arborea They can sort of change color but it's kinda hard to determine when they will and when they won't Another interesting thing about them is that their tadpoles are huge, and the small froglets are not so small compared to something like a leopard bullfrogs I've actually seen a big male european tree frog attempting to breed with a female leopard frog. I'ts a bit sad cuz there were a lot of tree frogs but they were vastly killed by fisherman who used them as bait and natrix natrix snakes and possibly by vipers and the massive floods from the river-cascade nearby, .....or maybe they just migrated?

I accidentally destroyed a grey tree frogs hibernation nest while digging for next years garden. She was snow white, freezing in my palm, didnt try to get away. I set her down near where I found her. Hours later it's much colder and she was still just sitting there. I offered my hand and she climbed right on. I've brought her inside and given her a temporary home until I can get a tall frog enclosure. I'm worried shes not eating anything I offer. I've tried very small earth worms, slugs, roly polies, meal worms, and now small crickets. Is she not hungry because she was all set for hibernation? I keep my home at 73. She has a dark cool area in her tank, and a corner with a warm light, about 80 degrees. She gets misted a couple times a day. She doesn't want escape, but she does want me to hold her. Could she be sick, or is this what happens when you interrupt their winter sleep?

@@Lunadare Our rescue frog was the one used in the video. Everything you have done for your rescue is perfect, exactly what she needs to thrive. She isn't sick at all, she is just waking up. :-)The habitat you have provided sounds exactly right! Your frog will need to be misted with a small water bottle a few times a day (we usually do it in the morning when we wake up and in the evening). By providing the small wooden dish of water, she will be able to jump in and rehydrate as needed. Frank is right. She may not eat until she is fully awake and her system gets moving again. Their preferred meal choice is crickets that you can purchase from PetsMart, Petco, etc. They lean on the nocturnal side and will be more active from dusk to dawn but they also love to eat so they will wake up and eat any time you offer it. They will eat however many crickets you give them which may lead to a weight problem. We believe it is because in the wild they may not know where or when the next meal will come by so they eat everything they can, when they can. We feed our frog 1 to 2 crickets daily to maintain good health. Yes! She is going to want to climb on you! We are basically like a "warming station" to them and they will not want to be put down. Frank is exactly right, they are endearing little frogs. *As mentioned in Frank's video, if you happen to have a male (which tend to be smaller than the female) do not be startled if he starts singing at some point. :-)

I am not sure. I observe wildlife in their natural setting and don't have much experience setting up habitats or caring for "herps" .

How do I get rid of them? We built a swimming pond last year, and this year there are over 5000 that we have removed, and there's no end to them period it's already mid July, and they're continuing to mate and create new tiny tadpoles period they are pooping everywhere we are not able to swim at all period I would love to get rid of the Gray tree frog. We do not enjoy the overwhelming number of mating calls we hear All Night long. We tried surrounding our pond with salt to deter them from getting in and laying eggs, but that's useless- any suggestions?

@@natureatyourdoor, I did. I was led there by your link on FB. Then searched this one out. You kept mentioning how you would like to stay and observe more, so I thought that maybe part two would include a trek back up to see how they were doing a few weeks down the line. I did like part two but was a bit bummed. I wanted to go back up there vicariously :) Thank you, for all of your wisdom and your desire to share it!
