I recently purchased 2 ADFs from my local store. I had them for a week and then left town for 4 days, when i returned i noticed one of the ADFs had a white spot on him inbetween the head and the arm, on what i suppose would be the neck.

My question is whether this is a fungus, I didnt notice it before when i purchased the frogs, or is this a natural marking. I wish i had a camera to post the picture up online for viewing. Any insight is always appreciated, don't know whether to start treatment or not.

Thanks

Hard to say without a photo. Is the spot fuzzy? Is it just one spot? I don't have ADFs but I do have 2 ACFs and they sometimes get white spots that resemble very tiny pimples. I don't take any action because they do not spread or bother them. I actually think it is part of their coloring.
