white lipped tree frog

[TraceyMac]

My white lipped has developed dark brown 'freckles' all over his skin. Can anyone tell me if this is normal? He is eating okay, is croaking often and his movement is normal.

I dont have a White lipped tree frog but do you think he could just be changing colors to more of a brown depends on what the spots look like. Post pics? Usually if the frogs are active, eating and their eyes are clear i dont worry too much. But like i said i dont own a WLTF ....did some searching ... perhaps this will help ? frogs.org.au Community :: View topic - Leopard Spots on WLTF (with pics)
if not maybe you could check all the requirements for the frog and be sure they are being met.

Pretty much do what Amy said, Pictures will help heaps. Hopefully his okay.

Thank you for that Amy - it's really detailed advice and I'll be getting him some treatment today.

If it is what Amy said, I suggest you look at this
FDR Inc. The Australian Diseases - The "Respiratory/Nervous System" Disease

Thanks for that Kristen - my little Angus looks just like one of those photos and I'm worried for him now. Am consulting a great guy at the shop where I bought him tomorrow as he thinks he can help. Thank you again for your input though. I'll let you know how we get on.

I have sat and massaged my frog this evening, something I don't think I would ever have imagined myself doing! The guy at the shop, who keeps frogs himself and has done for years, has given me a free tube of cream to help treat what he thinks is just a mild fungal infection that will probably get better in a couple of days with the help of this cream. Angus seemed to quite enjoy getting stroked with this stuff actually. He satquite still and didn't try to jump out of my hand. I'm feeling much better for him now - hopefully he'll be back to normal really soon. thanks to all you guys for your help and concern.

Oh good, it will be much better if it is just a fungal infection
I'm glad his getting better
