Thread: White spots on red eyed tree frogs

    Default White spots on red eyed tree frogs

    Hi everyone, just noticed my red eyed tree frogs have white specs on top of them, one has more than the other



    Any suggestions on what this could be?

    I thought the white spots were normal? How long have you had the frogs?

    I've only had them a few weeks but I've only noticed the spots today! Perhaps it's just them developing as I had read that white spots can be quite common?

    Most red eyes I have seen have at least a couple spots. As long as your enclosure is being kept clean I wouldn't worry about it.

    The white spots are like freckles Some have many, some have a few, some have none! Make sure you have a branch in there or leaves hanging from the top so that they can escape the wet paper towel. Great to see that you're doing a quarantine set up though!
