Is my White's Tree Frog Sick?

[axnfell]

I am VERY new to Tree Frogs, in fact I am VERY new to any frogs of any sort, I keep snakes and owls normally, but have been asked to take a pair of White's Tree Frogs by the local RSPCA.

I tried uploading an image but it did not like JPG or PNG images so I have attached a link, hopefully this will work.

I have only had these for about 3 hours and I have noticed that what I once thought was just dirt, may be a sore of some sort, can anyone shine any light on this for me..

Hello James, Welcome to the forum!

Here is a care sheet for the species you own http://www.frogforum.net/content.php...toria-caerulea If you have a pet store nearby that specializes in reptiles, i would get a container to keep crickets in and use tongs to feed them to your frogs.

It looks like your Whites tree frog has some Nose rub, As long as he's eating and active in his cage at night I wouldn't worry too much. I would however keep an eye on him though, if it gets worse contact an exotic vet in your area. (we can always get the more established members to help out as well) We have your back!

Thanks for the reply Ryan, I live on an Island and i'm afraid we are a tad limited to good stockists, we only have Pets @ Home which are not brilliant I am afraid, I think these came from off island as I have never seen frogs in our local store. But that said if you think it is fairly harmless I will just keep an eye on him/her.

Thanks again

James

Looks like you have a bad case of nose rub. You might want to dab it with iodine or antibacterial ointment (with NO painkillers- those can poison frogs)

In this case i would take Elly's advice
