I ordered two baby White's tree frogs AKA Green Australian Tree Frogs AKA Dumpy Tree Frogs. I had gone to them because the website/breeder I normally order things and animals for amphibians, reptiles and various bug species were out of stock for these adorable frogs, all morphs, so I turned to ReptileCity. I was amazed at the prices, especially with the "Buy 1 Get 1 Free" deal since I wanted a pair of males anyway. I ordered with standard shipping, so they would fulfil it in 30 days, and ship it. I ordered and happily awaited. I then decided to do some research on them since their "Free Range, 20 acre all natural farm" story seemed too good to be true. I stumbled across all the reviews here about animals not showing up, or coming sick or even DEAD. But, I gave them the benefit of the doubt. When they arrived today, first red flag, it wasn't in a live animal box, not even a sticker or label. I opened the box to find a few pages of crumpled news paper as "padding" and inside was a container with less than a hand full sphagnum moss (the container was cylinder and was on it's side might I add), one of the frogs was up on the side peering out, the other had nestled itself into an alcove in the minimal moss. I was a bit concerned about how the one up on the side was a bit skinny, but this is my first time owning them and I thought I may be overreacting since he wasn't that skinny , so I wasn't too concerned. Took them both out, both were extremely friendly and seemed quite excited to be out of that box. Other than the one being a bit skinny, both looked fine. THAT WAS WRONG. I took them out later, to show to my little brother who was at school when they arrived, and to feed them the extra small crickets we got. As we were feeding them on the table, the seemingly normal one hopped around inspecting things on the table, like my mom's purse. My mom suddenly began to stare at his foot and said something looked wrong with his toe. She picked him up and part of his toe was literally almost hanging off. The wound looked old, so we knew it hadn't been caused by the other frog in transit. We realized that he was also missing a complete toe on his front foot. So, yeah. Never ordering from them again. I am taking him to the vet tomorrow.
