i went to petco today on a whim.I found 2 tree frogs there.I had been thinking about getting red eye tree frogs but they are expensive!I found these 2 instead.They are so cool looking.If you all could have seen the fiasco that occurred when I got these home you would have laughed till you cried!he first thing I told my 9yr old daughter was these are for looking at and never touch them.I opened the box to show her and ,,BOING out popped the splotched one.My hands were filthy with grease and dirt from work so I couldn't grab it,so SHE did.Ha! she got to touch them after all.Here are pics of them,the green one I couldn't get a good shot of.

great buy! I was thinking about adding a couple more to my terrarium, how much were the red eyed ones? They're my gf's favorite, and she would flip if i got one.

They didnt have red eyes,the price range Ive see for them is between 30-60 bucks.These guys were somewhat less.I have no idea what species they are.

blotched one looks like a clown treefrog. Green one looks like a dumpy but a better pic would help

**smaug** · 06-17-2008, 02:39 AM

Yup the blotched one is a clown.I found that out earlier.The small isnt a dumpy for sure.I will hopefully get a better pic of him someday.They are certainly acting like tree frogs,they havnt moved a muscle since they were introduced to the tank!I gotta get a moonlight for night viewing.

I have just found out that the other one is a tiger leg tree frog here is a good shot of what I saw for a little bit when I first stocked them,cool huh?
