One of my Milk Frogs (Hammy) with Moss in his mouth as you can see, He's been opening his mouth almost like he's gaging. I got him out and looked close into his mouth and I see nothing in his throat. Do you feel I have a situation?
EDIT; I'm sorry, I'm just a worry wart, he seems ok now,
Gary,
It looks like he got all of it.
It's ,actually, a really cute photo! I can't believe how white the inside of his mouth is ??
Get rid of any substrate that's in his enclosure that could cause an intestinal obstruction. ie sphagmum moss
He has NO use for sphagnum moss

Moss must go !
Remember to take care of the enclosure and it will take care of your frog !
Thanks so much Lynn, I admit I am a worry wart, I see something and I start sweating. Is it good or bad that the inside of his mouth is so white? I don't think that's Sphagmum Moss that he got ahold of, Its just plain ole green garden moss I had put in there to try and give his Tush some cushion on his fake mushroom but its has been removed.
Moss is gone Carlos...thanks
