    It looks like a Pacific treefrog (Pseudacris regilla) to me. They are close relatives of the American Green treefrog (Hyla cinerea) found along the Pacific coast of North America.

    Welcome to the Forum

    It looks like a Pacific Chorus Frog. You can check out Paul Rust's care article to the left. He has alot of great information on these frogs and photos. These little guys change color, so you may notice your frog change from tan, to brown, to green.

    It is definitely a Pacific Chorus frog. I called it a Pacific Treefrog, which is old common name, but I guess Pacific Chorus frog is a more appropriate since it is no longer in the genus Hyla.
