    Also, all she seems to want to eat is superworms, and I can't break her of this...

Maybe she's just actually THAT fat? ...
    Hi Bruce! I'm confused about their treatment. Two weeks ago you posted Dr. Frye provided four weekly Panacure treatments and two weeks after you report treatment is done ?
    Remember to take care of the enclosure and it will take care of your frog !​

    She does look pretty hefty! Does she seem like she is in any discomfort? Possible fluid build up?

    Get her some Hornworms and when she eats one make the next item a Night Crawler. Sometimes you can trick them into eating what you want them to eat this way. They will usually strike without thinking.

    Oldest trick in the book Griff lol I've already tried it, she either completely spits them out, or stops eating all together after one. She's just a very picky frog!

    And that's the weird thing... She doesn't seem to be in discomfort all the time, however when she tries to pee (pushing), nothing comes out, no matter how many times she tries. Sometimes one big gush will come out on the first push but that's it. Besides those moments, she seems perfectly fine, just a picky eater...

    lol yeah some of them are just stubborn, mine would eat crickets only with occasional nighcrawler, but only from the water bowl and i guess the moon needs to be in right position lol
    Save one animal and it doesn't change the world, but it surely changes the world for that one animal!
