i've seen quite a few of them around the house so i figured he'd be fine to let go here.Just wondering if you identified it first to make sure its natural range was correct for releasing it at your home? (It is a Litoria fallax which does occur in that range by the way, but I hope you checked).
Regardless I advise against the introduction of any frogs to your garden, especially those found in foods in supermarkets as they are the hardest to tell where they came from. There are often local services that will take the frogs and rehome them as pets.
Haha I found a garden skink and a huge grasshopper in a coles once
Well said!Knowing what type of frog it is and that these are local to your area, I doubt any harm has been done in this case. Even so I would still advise against it in future as the frog could be carrying disease such as Chytridiomycosis (Chytrid kit-rid, fungus) which is a frog specific disease thought to survive only on frogs or within moist areas and water-bodies.
A more minor concern in this case would be the mixing of genetic material that may occur if this frog breeds with others in your yard.
