do u know a scientific name?

could it be Hypsiboas geographicus

 

[kerrid]

that's it
it was formerly known as hyla geographica and all the info i can really find is that since 2005 it's known as hypsiboas geographicus

I can't say I've ever heard of one before.

i went to a reptile expo this past weekend expecting to bring home a whites..but surprisingly there were none. so i took two of these cuties and haven't been able to find specifics. im assuming the care would be like any other tree frog. high humidity and heat. crickets, fruit flies and the occasional wax worm.
they're white when they're stressed or resting and when active, they range from brown to green.

They look nice but stressed. There's a very good chance that they are wild caught. I'd keep them in a low traffic area with the lights off for a few days. Keep the tank well moist by misting it twice a day.
