    I have never known anyone that got a sunburn in the shade.

    Me neither, actually. It was very late when I wrote that and I was falling asleep. I think I meant more how it's said you should still wear sunscreen even when in the shade. I assumed that though the frogs are hiding, there's still some benefit gained from the sun's UV rays.

    OK. Point being UV is not critical for most amphibians. It is, however, critical for most turtles and lizards.

    No, after dark they darken in colour, this quite normal. So don't worry about it.

    Wow I am glad to find these last two posts! Mr. Big turns brow at night when creeping around for his food but then light green when sleeping on the side of his cage. Its been freaking me out! I would hate to see him die or get sick before I can get his new set up going.

    I've been meaning to join this forum for quite a while now as it seems like a great and helpful community.

    I have to say it is a real bummer finding out this issue was never solved because my frog (Kiwi if you couldn't tell by the user name) is having the same exact issue as the original poster's frog and I can say for certain a methamphetamine lab is not a factor in this case as it may have been for the OP.

    So I guess at this point my next step should be taking her to a vet? Or might anyone have any ideas? I can give a pretty detailed habitat/history description and can post pictures of the issue as well if necessary.
