Never heard of albino frogs before. Online searches however indicated that they are quite a common occurrence among the frog population. Indeed, it happens with almost every species of frogs that it should not be confused for a certain kind of sickness.

Folks with these kind of frogs however need not worry because they can look really good depending on the kind of species. It can also be hard to pinpoint the exact species of the frog.

A little tidbit from Wikipedia:

The African clawed frog (Xenopus laevis, also known as platanna) is a species of South African aquatic frog of the genus Xenopus. It can grow up to a length of 5 in (12 cm) with a flattened head and body, but no external ear or tongue. Its name is derived from the three short claws on each of its hind feet, which it probably uses to stir up mud to hide itself from predators.

Well I am not into frogs but will help out by sharing what an Albino Frog looks like. You can watch a video of an Albino Frog on an Aquarium here:
