Hi, excited about frogs! I actually have one and don't know what kind it is! So I am very excited to be part of this forum and would really like to know what kind of tree frog i have. I think it is a girl, and she has BIG eyes, smooth skin and turns different shades of brown. The pet store told me she was some kind of florida tree frog but have had no luck on finding any pictures like her on the net. I got her for $3 because she was skinny and sick looking,She now looks much better and eats very good. Unfortunatly I am trying my best to care for her buy it is hard not knowing what kind she is. Any help would be appreciated!

Re: Hi, excited about frogs! I actually have one and don't know what kind it is! There are quite a few tree frog species down here in Florida that could have brown coloration. If it is 3 inches or more in length and has unusually large toe pads, it's probably a Cuban Tree Frog, which is considered an invasive species in Florida because it competes with, and eats, the native tree frogs. However, as a pet, they are pretty cool frogs. But, they don't have really smooth skin. Here's a link to a photo:

Here is a site that shows all the Florida native frogs:

Common tree frogs that are predominantly brown include the Pinewoods tree frog, Squirrel tree frog, and the Barking tree frog.
I hope this helps. If you post a photo, many folks on here can ID it for you.

Re: Hi, excited about frogs! I actually have one and don't know what kind it is! well it is definitely not a Florida frog, it looks more like Leptopelis vermiculatus which originates in Tanzania. It is a pretty common pet trade species at this point in time.
