Pacific Chorus Frog

Wow! That would be great. I deal with Petland, mostly; they sometimes do not have the proper names for their frogs (Yoki and Pip were sold merely as Tree frogs) but they provide the best care and have very low in-store mortality rates. Yoki would love to have another companion or two....especially if one was a girl. He has a great singing voice for wooing!

I will see what I can come up with.

I found a Pacific Chorus Frog in a potted plant on my top floor (3rd floor) balcony. I let him go in a grassy area outside, now 2 weeks later I find another one in my potted plants (either the same one or another one?) Not sure if male or female, seems friendly and happy in my iceplants. Looks healthy. He also changes color from brownish tan to green. What should I do? Let him hang out in my plants, have as a pet? (my son 4 likes him)

I will try to post some pictures I took today.
Thank you for any comments.

These frogs are so cute and when they are in the brown faze, I think they look very similar to the Whistling tree frog (Litoria ewingi).

They are most certainly two different frogs. The brown one is female, I can't tell what the green one is. They make great pets and do great in captivity.

It is strange but it is the same frog, I watched him/her change color I think because of the flash on my camera. This morning the little frog is still green. I put some smooth gnarly wood around my pots and one in with the iceplant for shade and hiding places. Looks like for now we will have a pet frog outside. ) Will see how it goes.

My son has named her "Pako". As you said I think she is female. Has the white neck and belly, both when brown and green. When she turns green she has the black markings on her back. Your website is great! I have learned alot about this little frog. I have never seen them before. I've lived here for over a year and this is the first time one has been in my plants. I'm on the top floor (3rd floor) she must be a GREAT climber!

I just noticed that you are in CA. Temp and humidity triggers color change in these guys, both of these conditions probably change more often and more extreme for you than here in WA. Normally the ones here keep their color and change shade from light to dark. She is very pretty.
