    Default Need help identifying Australian frog

    Hi, i've never kept any frogs before, but did have a passing interest once. Anyways i recently found this small-ish green frog under some pretty weird circumstances, and it wasn't in a very healthy looking condition. It's about 45 mm in length if that's any help, and was found in sydney, NSW. Im thinkin it could be a green tree frog, but dunno..

    I took this pic of it, it's kinda bad quality, i know :/ Also any help on any immediate things to do for it...

    thanks

    My guess would be Litoria caerulea aka green tree frog as well. Hopefully, someone w/ more knowledge will chime in.

    There's a care sheet here: http://www.frogforum.net/tree-frogs/...caresheet.html

    That would be my guess also.
    2.0.3 Hyla versicolor "Eastern Gray Tree Frogs"
    2.2.0 Agalychnis callidryas "Red Eyed Tree Frogs"

    0.0.3 Dendrobates auratus "Turquoise and Bronze"
    0.0.1 Anaxyrus fowleri "Fowler's Toad"

    Of course, that's assuming that I can convert mm to inches.

    I'd put my money on Green tree frog.
