i'm really sorry, yes native species are illegal to trade. i have 2 Gray tree frogs i raised from a tadpole. in the spring time, often a gray tree frog will lay her eggs in a pool cover- if you know anyone with a pool, you can ask them if they ever get frog eggs or tadpoles in their pool cover- if so, they are probably Gray tree frogs. if you can find some, you can raise them the way i did. otherwise there are some cute small type tree frogs in the hobby.
