    Default ID this frog? please :)

    Hi all,
    I'm new here but been reading for a while already.

    So I bought tadpoles from Florida, the seller said that they are green/beige tree frogs. The tadpoles arrived all healthy and very cute. I put them in my wildlife pond, outside.

    Anyway, I looked up online and the Cuban tree frog name poped up many time and got me worried that I might be introducing the invasive specie to my area. The look of the tadpoles and the picture of the froglet that the seller put up look so much like Cuban tree frog.

    Here is the picture of the froglet that the owner have up on eBay

    The frog has light stripe along the body and red eyes. Name:  frog.jpg

    If these are Cuban tree frog, will they survive mild winter? (no snow)

    Thank you

    The second on is the pic of the frog that the seller had when he advertise the tadpoles, so I assumed the same frog specie of the one he sold me.

    Any way you can ask the seller if he can give you a better pic of the adult?

    If this is any help, his old item, assuming the same parents. Since he said the same thing - green and beige tree frog.

    Live Tadpoles Green Tree Frogs U Get 35 for 16 99 Live Arrival Gaurenteed WOW | eBay

    i asked him if these are Cuban and he said no since he have the parents, so I think these two in the link are the parents. He did not know what Cuban tree frog is.

    when I searched the picture of Cuban tree frog, I found one of the picture he used labeled as Cuban tree frog...and also the bumpy skin.

    Please tell me I'm crazy!!

    Wow this guy does not know what he has. The first pic he has is a green tree the third pic is a cuban. I'm willing to bet he just when out and picked up a bunch of tads from a lake.
