Is my Frog okay with this red area on his back?

[Rocky Raven]

Hi guys,

I'm buying a Tree Frog from an online petshop faraway from my house (this shop has great reputation in our country), and now the shop has only 1 Tree Frog available, they will ship the frog to my house next week. However...
Here're the pictures of the Frog, is it just me overthinking or can you guys see some red/slightly dark area on his back (near the head), is it okay guys...? I really dunno, hope someone got experience in frog skin gimme some advices, thanks in advacne T_T

Hello and welcome to FF! Myself would pass on this one until that skin discoloration from shoulder area to snout and into front legs is resolved. Discoloration could be stress, or something more serious and from pics, can't tell. Also, the timpani area appears to be irritated (red). Hopefully you get other opinions here, good luck !

I believe this frog was sleeping behind a leaf that changed it's skin color.
( less light on it's head and more light on it's bottom )

Simple - ask for another photo

Hi Lynn & Carols

Thanks a lot for your reply. I'll consider then...

Actually the big picture above was posted on their shop pet list from July. And the other two below are from last week as I requested.

The shop told me that the Frog was still really healthy and all, but they couldn't explain the color properly, they said that it had been already there since when the Frog was first arrived, and for 2 months the Frog had been fine with them so I dont have to worry.


Anyone notice the ears of the Frog, it is so red right? Is it a sign of any decease?
Cause when I search some pictures on Internet, the other WTFrog's ears are not that red...

Thanks guys anyway!
