Thread: New and Need help with Identification

    Exclamation New and Need help with Identification

    I have a red-eared slider turtle who has recently outgrown his outdoor swimming pool and in his stead we were blessed with hundreds of tadpoles. As an enthusiastic reptile and amphibian lover I decided to transfer a few of the new Froglets to a tank while the others are free to leave the nest and travel into the wilds on their own. We have a heavy population of green and gray tree frogs in the area so I'm assuming that's what I have. I am, however, uncertain.

    I have a few pictures (on photobucket) and I was hoping someone could identify them so I give proper care to the young ones.

    I am new to this site so if I'm posting to the wrong place please let me know.

    Thanks,
    Laura

    I also have the photos on my album here.

    Care wise, all US Hyla species have the same requirements as Gray Tree Frogs, so read that care article - it covers froglets too. They look to be Gray Tree Frogs but if you tell us what part of NC you are in, that will help. Of the two Gray Tree Frog species, you only have Hyla chrysoscelis there.
