Odd skin on frog?

[DanDrobates]

It’s normal and acts as a predatory deterrent although there are no known toxins present. Amphibiaweb.org has a good article about the species if your curious.

Thanks for the reply, but....
I have had Kaloulas for years, some made it, others didn't, and I've looked over a few potential new purchases, and none has ever had the sticky skin the frog in question has. No other frog I have ever met, has ever had that kind of sticky skin either.

The skin is constantly sticky, in the way that the substrate sticks to the skin, so as deterrent, it certainly doesn't work.

I thought when I bought "her" (it's hard to tell the gender) that the stickyness would go away when she felt safe or at home, but not so. I don't know if she sheds, but then I have never seen my Kaloulas shed since they like to burrow and then take a bath. She isn't eating as much as Mr. Kaloula does, but then he has always been a glutton. I think I've had him for 7 or 8 years by now, and I've had her for more than a year.
