Hello!
I've recently acquired 2 teeny ADFs for Christmas. After doing some research it's looking like the average ADF looks pretty much the same (greens..black spots). However one of the 2 I received is actually a whitish grey or beige type colour whom I've named Zoom.
Zoom doesn't seem sick or anything but I wanted an opinion on why he/she is this colour? Is there such thing as a leucistic ADF? (note I'm asking about leucism and not albinism)
Here is the best picture of him/her that I can get
I've googled and found other Lucy ADFs that do look similar, but I'm a worry wart and just wanted to double check with others that might be able to tell for sure xD;
Also at what age/size can you typically be able to tell if you have a male or female? I really see no difference between the two I have other than a slight size variation (and colour obviously). Would I have to wait till mating season to tell? (note I understand the basics of how to tell the difference. I have done some reading.) Either both mine are female or they havnt matured yet I'm guessing.
thank you for your time!
I don't think your frog is leucistic. The "normal" ADFs are actually a small variety of species and the variances in color are normal even within the same species. There are some on the market right now though that I have seen referred to as "blond", but they are white, not grey.
You should be able to sex them in a few months.
I think it is perfectly normal coloring,
The one I have is the same and she is over a year old.
Sorry it is not the best picture.
