Possibly the result of exposure to the pool chemicals?
In fact I am surprised that the chemnicals didn't kill it.

after researching it found out that this frog is known to be metallic blue rare but it is there, the pool had a cover that was filled with rain snow melt and leaves , we saved a few thousand tads and spotted sals larva hope they do ok , would die for sure when run thru the water pump any how neat to see a frog like this, Rana clamitans melanota I belive
