Is this normal?

My daughter found this bullfrog and we have had it for a few days but now it is starting to get huge marks on its sides and is starting to smell really bad. It hops around and eats just fine. Whats going on?

here are a few pictures.

I have no clue what it is but until you do I would make sure your daughter does not handle it anymore.

It looks like it might be a wound or a bacterial skin infection, although I think those infections are usually more red. Is there anything sharp or rough in the frog's enclosure that might cause abrasions?

If..

....vet bills are a concern in anyway, I would apply (wearing rubber gloves) a Neosporin type topical ointment once per day for about 7-10 days. For the duration of the Neosporin treatment, I would confine the frog to a medium sized, and easily cleaned, plastic storage box container. The substrate should be moist paper towels (changed every day) with a water dish large enough for the frog to go in and submerge. Use bottled water only. Also...make sure the frogs tank is not situated in direct sunlight. You can burn a frog inside a tank by magnification of the suns rays easily.
