I haven't really noticed drastic color differences in the ones i've seen, but it is entirely possible. I suspect that that red color is just a trait of youth that eventually turns to brown in adults. That being said, there are now several different species of Theloderma in the U.S. Just recently there were imports of T. bicolor, which looks very similar to corticale, and T. asperum, which is a little more unique looking.

i have 3 mossys but in the us they are very male heavy so it is hard to breed them and if a mossy is proven to be female they are often pricy i have had mine for 1 yr and they are beutiful but i am not sure if i have a female because 2 are proven males and one is hard to sex
ps: what is your tank temp humidity etc. when they bred
Some update on my 6-7 days old tadpole,some seem to be feeding already and i am now feeding them sinking fish food that contain spirulina from Tropical.. i am keeping them in 15L of water tank and with a airstone with carbon and plus twice changes of 10 % of water a week.

Eggs of T.corticale (2days old)
Tadpole 3 days old (but still very restless laying around)
The picture of the eggs is so strange! It looks like the rock has eyes. Creepy, but I like it. I guess I am weird that way
thats sweet im so happy thay made it
my water is 5 1/2 inches deep and my frogs are in an all aquatic tank with sticks "that are only used by the crickets" and a fake seeweed plant, i have a filter that cleans the water and then spills it out in a waterfall way on the side of the tank and the water comes down the glass and goes into the water that the frogs are always in. my mossie frogs are active at all times of the day croaking all the time. sometimes when i change the water they mount the only unsexed mossie i have, so i think it may be a female but it is not bigger than the others and i have still never seen any eggs, i think this may be because of temperature though because after a year and a half of research i am yet to find an exact temp for mossies so what is your temp when they layd the eggs.
okie.... how big is ur tank, how many mossy u have and how big are they?
I keep them between 25-28 celsius as my country is hot so i am using a chiller to chill my tank for them... my chiller kick in at 28 and kick off at 25.
I am using a sump for my tank .. inside the sump i use carbon and some bio home for bacteria to live in as filter as well...
Also maybe u might want to add some lava rock in as they need dry area to live their egg on... imine lay the egg on the rocks doh.
my tank is a 29 gal i have 3 mossies in it and they are all full grown 2 yr olds and i was going to add lava rock but i have no $$ right now
ps: what is a sump i have never heard of this
how are thay doing
cool thanks
Picture of them two weeks old(Pic taken on 12apriil09)...and it feeding time!
