    Default Tree Frog Cloudy/white eye

    Hi there- I am new to this forum.

    I have an American Green Tree Frog "Monty" and I just noticed on eyes is very discolored- its is almost opaque. the other eye is fine. He is looking a bit small too. I'm not sure if he has an infection and losing weight or cant see the food and having trouble eating. he other frog in the tank is fine and looking healthy. I've had him for about a year and I've never seen anything like this before.

    Has anyone seen this before ?What should I do?

    I am trying to upload a picture but it says my jpg is not a valid image file...

    This happens to frogs sometime. It might be caused by a fatty diet, but since you have an American Green Tree frog there's no way you could have been feeding it mice. Otherwise, it's probably some form of cataract. The eye could have been injured. I've never heard that there's anything you can do about it, but I might be wrong. Just make sure it eats regularly, maybe try tweezer feeding if you don't already.
    Also the photohosting on this site is messed up but you can download a photo to something like flickr or photobucket and post it here from that site.
