    Exclamation Brown bumps on new whites tree frog

    Just got a new White’s tree frog at petco (I felt bad for him he was the only one in the tank) my other 3 whites I got from a good breeder. Well she has some bumpy small brown spots on her back. Never seen this before so I’m a little worried because of getting her from a pet store and I don’t want any of my other frogs getting sick. She is hopping around and eating so nothing weird with that just the marks.of anyone has any info on the matter or maby clarification on it being a normal occurrence would be much appreciated!

    Could be injuries? Could be fungal? Could be parasites? One thing's for sure, I wouldn't put her in with the other frogs until you know for sure what's causing this.

    Here's a post on the subject. It's not terribly helpful though: http://www.frogforum.net/showthread.php/7837-Brown-spots-on-green-tree-frog

    Thank you for your reply! I have had her in the tank most of the day but I’m gonna try to find something to keep her in till I can figure it out. I just hope it’s not already infected my other frogs 😣 I was kind of hopping it was normal. I’ll take the frog to the vet tomorrow

    Best case scenario: those are infected cricket bites and your other frogs will be fine. If it's parasites your other frogs might be okay as long as this one hasn't pooped in the tank yet. Worst case it's fungus and there's a chance your other frogs could be infected.
