Field Notes

Description:

Tree frog with yellow eyes and pink neck/toes. Also known as the smiling tree frog! :)

Habitat:

They've been our pets for about 9 years. They love hopping around and sitting in water! One is smaller and usually lighter colored than the other, but they range from light green to dark brown!

Love the 3rd one! It's all tucked up! It should be put on a card!
I have two of these frogs aswell. one is a guy and one is a girl. the girl will eat anything. she's lunged at my fingers before. sometimes she eats small mice!
I just added another picture of the brown one. Its the last picture and shows more of their underside and chin than the eyes. Luckily these guys are very photogenic unlike some of my other pets and wildlife spottings-particularly fish.
Just learned a fun fact from wikipedia that I thought I would share: The Australian tree frog is one of the most popular frog pet in the world. Also, they eat mainly small insects and spiders but they can eat other frogs and even small mammals!! http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Australian_Tree_Frog
Thanks! Yes the green ones toes are adorable!! It took me about an hour to get a good shot of them! :)
Ahhh! Thanks so much for sharing! Those two are GORgeous!!! And those toes....
Thank you everyone, I added more pics and I also included the brown frog! :)
Sure thing! They love sitting on their feet unless their jumping though! They may also change color, the darker one has different colored toes! I'll check them out! Those photos will be my goal for the day! :D
Good, coz they're amazing... And I'd like to see those pink toes!
She's sitting on my trampoline!! I'm going to get more pics tomorrow of both of my frogs! :)
