Can I keep it?
Setup
The numbers
Thermal gradient
Day: a real gradient, 18–21°C warm against 15–16°C cool, so the animal chooses. Night: 10–12°C.
Why
Same scale on every sheet here, so two species compare by eye.
The sheet stateswarm season 18-21 °C / cool season 15-16 °C / night 10-12 °C during a controlled breeding period; cool-running montane species, no basking zone described
Drag the sun. Fea's Flying Tree Frog is Nocturnal, so what it is doing changes with the light. The sheet states a night temperature, and the rail follows it.
Enclosure and conditions
What your climate adds
This sheet states a range to hold. Your local climate decides how much work holding it is. Pick the nearest city: nothing is sent anywhere, the choice stays in this browser.
What it needs
Every line above is deduced from a value this sheet states, and names which one. Nothing here is a general recommendation. What the sheet does not state is listed too, rather than left out: a kit that looks complete is worse than one that names its gap.

The species
Identity
Adult size
True scale, against a 1.75 m person
Logarithmic, the same axis on every sheet
The size the sheet states for a grown animal.
Why
Two drawings, because they answer two questions. The silhouette is at true scale against a 1.75 m person: it says how big this animal actually is, which no number does for someone who has never seen one. The bar under it is logarithmic and shared by every sheet here, so a 2 cm isopod and a 4 m python both stay readable on the same axis and two species can be compared at a glance.
Reproduction
Good to know

The way of life is written in this sheet, word for word. The climate words summarise the two figures above them, they do not add to them.

Questions & sources
Common questions
Can it really glide?
It has big webbed feet and can control a long leap in the trees, so people call it a flying frog. In a tank it mostly climbs and leaps between branches.
How big does it get?
Large for a tree frog, one of the biggest in the region, so it needs a tall tank with real climbing space, not a small display box.
Is it hard to keep?
It needs a humid, well ventilated tall tank and steady misting. Not the hardest frog, but not a first frog either.
Can I handle it?
Only briefly with clean wet hands, and always inside a closed room. It is a strong jumper and will be gone in one leap.

What this sheet states
This sheet states 5 of 7 of the fields this product runs on. What is missing turns something off: humidity instrument and audit, enclosure size audit. We show the gap rather than fill it with a plausible number.
UVB is measured but does not count: it is absent from 420 of 678 sheets, and on most of them that is not a gap, since a nocturnal snake's sheet has no reason to state a UV index. Counting it would call the library incomplete without cause.
