Question
I have one blue dumpy frog and decided I wanted more, so I ordered two more and they look nothing like the one I have. I am wondering if dumpy or white frogs can they look really different or not. The one I already had is typical dumpy frog she is bright blueish, limish green rounder mouth and is solid in color and is chunky. the new ones I got are a dark green and have white stripes on there sides and have pointer faces. They are a little round in the belly but not like mine. They look really different, the pet store kept telling me that they are blue dumpy frogs, but they even have different personality than mine. I can hold mine she will sit on my hand for a while and not freak, these new ones won't even sit on my hand, they instantly jump and are more active than mine. Can blue dumpy frogs differ so much, or did I get two different kind of frogs, because I will return them. I want dumpy frogs they are friendly and fat and so cute. These new ones are not as cute at all. If you could help me that would be great I could send you pics or whatever. Thank You, Carmen Hansen

Hello no these are either white lipped tree frogs or american green tree frogs : here is a pictured of the american green...thes eare very inbexpensive and genrally 1/4 the price of the dumpys.
