brown spots can be caused by contact with human skin sometimes

I don't know much about frogs but I have seen a chocolate coloured white-lipped tree frog, hopefully your little guy doesn't have anything wrong with it but is just going through a colour change, the brown doesn't look localised to any particular area so hopefully this is the case.

Do you need higher humidity for white lips than regular green tee frogs?
Sometimes camouflage can also play a role in colour changes but if you are worried or the insides of the legs redden or it starts losing weight,seek an expert from the frog forum.

You can also post there to get specific help for you frog, follow the sticky post in health and disease to see what info you will need to supply in your first post. I can't post all the info you will need as it is to detailed. |
