Help
I am a teacher. I just took a class this summer. One of the items we received from this class was a white-lipped tree frog. He is such a cutie. I have been feeding him 2 crickets every Monday/Wednesday/Friday. I spray his cage once a day. I change his water every day or two. He was bright green. Then he went to a darker green (and then shed and ate his skin). Now the side that is facing the window is turning gray. His tank is not to warm (the window blinds are shut, and the house is set at 74-ish). I have attached some pictures of hopper. Please help me. I want this guy to be a part of my student's education for many years to come.

Could it be this...
When I googled pictures, that looks like itSpring Disease:
Caused by Bacterium ranicida, this lethal disease occurs in certain temperate species during breeding season. Symptoms include continuous yawning, lethargy and skin discoloration. Apparently, there isn't any reliable treatment for this disease, though experimentation with antibiotics may be worthwhile. Consult your vet.

Other thing... Could it have been burned by something in his cage?? A heater of some sort?

Re: Help
He was in the sun for a bit...could it be like froggy sunburn? I don't think it is the other thing. He does not have any of the other symptoms.
