Hi guys! Do, I picked up a babu red eyed tree frog at the reptile show in San Diego about a week ago. He is int, I'd say about the size of a corner. Super cute. Anyway, the first time I ever saw him eat, he changed to a dark shade of purple. I hadn't seen it again until I came in my room tonight and saw him sitting in his water cap, and he is again that purple shade. I am thinking maybe it is a behavioral thing, but I have no idea. He is eating just one from what I can tell, because his crickets are disappearing and he leaves fresh poop on his glass. Has anyone experienced this color change with frogs before? Is it something I should worry about, or should I just let the frog be a frog and stop worrying about things?

Thanks!
Andrew
