I recently picked up a very healthy GTF at a privately owned Pet store that specializes in Herps. They had had someone turn the GTF in as they could no longer care for it. They had much discussion over what kind of frog it was. They all knew it had to be a GTF but they were very confused at it's blue coloring and her size. She is 2.5 inches long.

Now, I go in there a lot and for the most part have more knowledge than they do when it comes to treefrogs in particular. I actually played dumb this time....and said that it was just a stressed GTF. But, it is definitely a blue phased GTF. The size was not at all suprizing to me(I have two GTF Females that are just about 2.75"and 2.5" long respectively.)

The store was not very excited about keeping her(Because she was taking up one ot their 20 gallon tanks), so I bought her for $6. I happily went home with my new prize.

I love this little Lady! So Cute! Changes from a light aqua deep teal. I will get some pictures to post soon.

If anyone else has some Blue phased GTF i'd like to hear about them and see your pictures of them.
