Do your frogs change colors? Post your pics :o)

I can tell my frogs apart, no matter what color they are, by the markings on their backs. The markings are like a fingerprint, very distinctive and different on each frog.

Here's a pic of Hilo when she is brown..

My firebellies turn darker, to a muddy green, when they are in the water and bright green when they come out on land. My green Red Eye turns darker green at night when the lights are off and turns lime green when I pick him up or turn on the lights. When he is sleeping in the day he is lime green.

Here's Niko and her many colors.... You can see in the first picture she is thinner, it was taken in June. The second picture when she is brown she is fatter, it was taken in September. But notice her markings, it's the same frog!

Here's Waldo, Gray Treefrog. Most of the winter he's the light gray (2nd pic), sometimes with a light green lip and edge around his side (as in the 4th pic).

This summer he's been the light green (1st pic), it's a few degrees warmer in the summer and he's trying to impress the ladies.

When he's wet after I mist the cage, he turns a darker version of whatever shade he's currently in (3rd pic, taken in the winter). He is also wet here, but he's definitely darker.

The green patches under the eyes never have a noticeable change. I've noticed the turning darker when wet or in high humidity is a pretty standard response in the 'wild' grays around here as well.

UncleChester , Great Photos!

Waldo is beautiful! I find it amazing to watch them change colors. Thank you for sharing.

Waldo is sssoooooooooo cute. I cant wait for my little GTFroglets to get bigger and chubbier. I have them in my old fish tank that came with the standard hood. There was an opening in the back of the hood for the heater, filter, air tubes, etc. that I covered with a screen. Across the top of the tank are two straps that run front to back, I'm quessing to ensure the hood wouldn't fall in. My froglets perch up there and since it is black I can always tell where they've been. Right now they're are too small, too many and my camera is unable to capture the details of their little chublet bodies for good pics. When I can I'll be happy to post them...I can't wait!
