Hi, My pacman frog lives in an exo terra five inches off cocofiber a waterbowl and a plant he eats calcium dusted crix and some night crawlers. He seems to be favoring a leg and every time he trys to move he flips over which I think is caused by his hurt leg and advice?
Hello and welcome to FF. Sorry your frog isn't well. Are there any visual cues there is something physically wrong with frogs leg? When did this issue developed? Has frog been dropped or anything happened to it? Also, please answer these questions about it's enclosure. It will help to figure out if anything else is the cause. Thank you !
