Just got our second red eyed tree frog today. Were pretty sure its male as its quite a bit smaller then our other, or could just be a juvenile stillstore was less then helpful about the age.
From what i can tell he looks quite healthy, no wounds, bumps on his legs, or discoloration (im no expert tho). We got it in its quarantine tank now, and we tossed in four crickets thinking he would eat when its dark once he gets comfortable, but to our surprise hes quite the aggressive little eater. As soon as they hit the ground, he went right for them eating all four of them within a few mins
Was kinda shocking to see since ive never even seen our other Red-Eyed Leaf Frog eat, let alone show any interest to the crickets during the day in the 6 months we've had her. (she's a sneaky eater apparently)
Here's a pic of our new lil buddy. I have one question though if anyone can take an educated guess, i know its common for Red-Eyed Leaf Frog's to have those little white spots on them , but ive read that a disease called Oodinium can cause the same looking spots, do the spots on our lil guy look normal, or should i keep an eye on them? I only ask since our current Red-Eyed Leaf Frog is completely spot free.(3rd Picture)
<- Our newest addition looking quite full after his lil feast
(Spot perhaps?)
<- Our First Red-Eyed Leaf Frog Frogger (Named after she jumped our of her carrying box from the pet store and landed right on a model car
)
Congrats on the new frog and she sure is beautiful

Hi,
Congratulations!
As far as I can see from these photos; the white spots are normal pigmentation. They will always be there. Some have them, some do not.
When your frog gets settled in , perhaps throw up another photo (close up shot) so we can take another look see.
Pretty coloring-enjoy !
