    Hello and welcome to FF Jakub! Not leucistic since those lack all colors on organisms body and have normal colored eyes. Appears more like a translucent effect of sorts. Visited your FB pics page and saw many very nice frogs there, congrats !
    Remember to take care of the enclosure and it will take care of your frog !​

    Thanks! We will keep updating the gallery...

    I know that leucistic have normal colored eyes, but please keep in mind that those are also albino. So they are bearers of the two recessive traits. It is the same with leopard geckos - true leucistic are black-eyed, but so-called supermorphs (two recessive traits or more) leucistic/albino are red-eyed.
