    Some frogs may off their food for a week or so until they adjust to their new tank but the wound may also cause this, so I would still get it treated to prevent it from becoming very infected

    Unfortunatly she passed away
    When i left for school she was hiding behind a plant and when i came back to take her to the vet she was already dead. Her back legg was really dark on the inside so maybe she had an infection? I added pictures off it to the album

    Sorry for your loss. Unfortunately greens come mostly wild caught and they can experience these problems. I would get whites tree frogs or a pacman if you plan on getting another frog. These are mostly captive bred and do a lot better. I can't see any photos?

    Ohhh.. wait I just seen the link to the pictures. That is a white's tree frog, I thought you meant a USA green tree frog. In that case it's very unfortunate that this has happened, as these are very hardy frogs. Your husbandry was good, as well. I would definitely not let this experience put you off getting another one

    The english names are confusing sometimes
    I adopted her from a professor at school who is a vet but she got them from a univeristy that used them for tests on habitat so probably something went wrong there.
    I'm definitely not letting this discourage me from keeping frogs!

    Yeah, it can be but using the latin names can help. The moving about must have stressed the poor frog

    Sorry about your frog's death.
    The patchy skin in the pictures makes me think maybe it was some fungal problem. Or it could have been an infection of the leg like you said.

    If you do get a new frog, I'd suggest changing the substrate and making sure to sterilize the tank and the things inside before using it again.
