I adopted a cute frog from Petco, but no one remembered what kind of frog it happened to be. Was wondering if anyone could give me maybe some idea?
One thread is enough. I'm not at all certain, but I'm taking a wild guess at cuban tree frog. Could be entirely wrong.
I'm about 95% sure that's a Cuban. One way to check is to rub the skin on top of it's head. If the skin moves relative to the underlying skull (like yours does), it's not a Cuban. If the skin is anchored rigidly to the skull (like in a toad or alligator), it's probably a Cuban (I can't think of many other Osteopilus species in common pet trade in the US).
It looks like a Cuban to me too. But......how can you purchase an animal and then forget what it is?? That doesn't sound like a very responsible owner to me........
I didn't forget. The people at the petstore forgot what the couple said it was. Im very responsible when it comes to my babies thank you.
I'm sorry! I misread what you had typed. The people at the pet store I can see that happening! I think I have to agree, though that you have yourself a Cuban Tree Frog. :3
Its okay. I dont blame them for forgetting they were kind of busy that day. Adopted him for five. And the first night i had ghim he escaped in my friends house. Lol. Thanks for the help. gonna look up more on cuban tree frogs when worj is over. Thank you again!
Looks like a Cubano to me
He looks good too awesome pick up.
Thankies! hes a fat little thing that seems to like being held. couldnt get him to get into his new home last night when my friend got him to me.
Just be aware they have toxic/irritating skin secretions, so make sure to wash your hands after handling him.
What State do you live in? I think this could also be a Hyla Versicolor, Eastern Gray Treefrog. Does it have any yellow on the underparts of the back legs?
Already noted about the their skin. After Handling him I go scurb with some soap. Thanks though. ^^
I live in Louisiana. But I don't know if the people had bought him from some where or caught him outside. Not to sure about if it has yellow on the underparts of his legs or not.
