Pseudacris crucifer. boreal chorus frog

I live near Denver Colo
As a native of the region I remember having great fun watching and listening to these little frogs
Now I have some acrerage with a small stream leading to a marsh
I would love to introduce this native boreal chorus frog into this marsh
Does anyone know where a population of these can be found near me????
Or is anyone raising these frogs that might be able to supply some to me

Pseudacris crucifer is the Spring Peeper, it is not native to Colorado.
With respect to Chorus frogs- I agree that they are neat to have around, moving them around within their range is a poor idea, is frowned upon by wildlife biologists, and may even be illegal in your area, as it can lead to genetic pollution.
However, chorus frogs are abundant in a variety of wetland habitats throughout their range. If your marsh is within the range of the chorus frog, and is appropriate habitat to support chorus frogs, I would say that it is highly likely that they are already there.

Hopefully you have lots of neat herps in your marsh.
Here in Minnesota, we have chorus frogs statewide. Appearance varies substantially by region. In southern MN where I live, they are generally brown or gray. However in northern MN, they are more colorful, and I frequently find green or red specimens. They are truly beautiful frogs. It's too bad that they are so hard to find outside of the breeding season.
