The Mission golden-eyed tree frog or Amazon milk frog for sale (Trachycephalus resinifictrix) is a large species of arboreal frog native to the Amazon Rainforest in South America. It is sometimes referred to as the blue milk frog due to a sticky, milk-like substance that they produce when feeling threatened. It was first discovered along the Maracanã River in Brazil. This species was previously within the genus Phrynohyas, which was recently synonymized with Trachycephalus.
Description of Amazon Milk Frog For Sale
These frogs are fairly large, reaching sizes of 2.5 to 4.0 in (6.4 to 10.2 cm) in length. Adult frogs are light grey in colour with brown or black banding, while juveniles will exhibit stronger contrasts. As they age, their skin develops a slightly bumpy texture. Their blood tends to be a shade of blue which can be shown through their skin, most boldly in the mouth area and toe pads.
The “milk” in the common name comes from the milky fluid these frogs excrete when stressed.

Mission golden-eyed tree frogs are found in the tropical rain forests of South America. Populations are widespread in Guyana, Colombia, Brazil, Ecuador and Peru. They often inhabit vegetation which extends over permanent, slow-moving water sources.

This is my first time ordering animals online and this was a really amazing experience! They did great with shipping and they called automatically to make sure my order was getting to the right place and all 3 of my frogs came very healthy and very well packaged! And overnight shipping just like it said! Even the UPS man waited so my frogs wouldn’t get eaten by ants or anything I totally recommend this website for any animal!

Speedy service. Very reliable. Very easy. I surprised my son who is 8 and is in love with frogs. I wish I could send you all the video because his reaction was priceless. The great thing was I ordered it on Monday and had it the following day. Awesome, awesome, awesome!
