I'm loving my terarrium, the only thing is that I'm missing all 5 grey tree frog froglets now. I thinking maybe they had gone into hibernation, I have been trying to research but can not find any GOOD info. i.e what causes them to go into hibernation, temp drop, or just because its that time of the year.

The last time I saw one of the froglets he had this foamy substance he seemed to be covering himself with, I thought it might be the antifreeze stuff they ozze to protect their cells from cold damage.

I read that if you would like these guys to go into hibernation to drop the temp to 50 degrees and maintain it. This has not been the case, my apartment has not been consistantly cold. I do not have control over the heat sometimes its cold sometimes it's swealtering.

Anyone keep these guys?

Thanks
