Discoloration of WTF?

I have 3 whites tree frogs and one of them is always brown and the others green. Occasionally the two green ones will turn a little brown but it's completely safe and the brow one is actually a male and currently breeding. Also like you said your frog keeps hitting its head against the bowl. I recommend feeding your frog in the tank instead of in a bowl and it will also help to tong feed your frog if it can't hunt as well now. I hope this helps your worrying. Everyone worries about their frogs.

Your frog should have a basking spot that hits 85F. More information on their care in here: Frog Forum - White's Tree Frog Care - Litoria caerulea.

yep, he has a basking spot near the top of the tank that's usually around 85 degrees.

Mordin is active and healthy so I'm sure he COULD be tank fed, but I'm worried if I do he might ingest substrate? I have EcoEarth which I know is supposed to not cause impaction, but it still worries me so I bowl feed just to be safe. Plus I like the bowl because it makes feeding fast and simple, I don't have to touch the bugs, and I can monitor how many crickets he eats and not have to worry about them dying in the tank, or hiding somewhere he can't reach.

Maybe I could try tong feeding him just until the bump on his nose heals? I'd think it would be hard to get the crickets out of the container with tongs without having a bunch escape though.

i have 3 whites one is green one is green/brown and other (the Male ) is brown most of the time

An update: I've been hand-feeding him some days, and bowl feeding when I'm in a hurry and don't feel like touching crickets. The spot on his nose has turned from blue-ish to black, and it's worrying me. Could it be healing, like how bruises on a person turn yellow when they heal, or is it getting worse?

Ouch! I don't really have an answer as to what it might be, hope it is just a bruise... could it be a cricket bite?? If he's still eating and acting normally it might not be anything to worry about really, but maybe you should ask a herp vet to be on the safe side...?
