    Default hibernation or problem?

    Two days ago I changed my pacmans substrate. Last night she looked like her eyes were infected and glazed over.. also closed. Today I get home from work and she's just in the middle of the tank not burrowed laying as much on her side as possible whIle having all four feet on the ground. I had t of nudge her to make sure she was still alive. She hopped blindly into the glass since her eyes are closed and flippedalet upside down. When she did I noticed a dime size scuff on her stomach.. almost an open wound... is she shedding or should I be concerned? This may be an obvious answer either way but for a beginner i have no idea if shedding does leave scuffs or anything....


    Also if it's hibernation/shedding how long will this last? She hasn't burrowed in about 20 hours that I know of.

    Sorry for any typos. My phones auto correct is smart. Too smart for its own good. I caught all I saw but I make mistakes.

    The other members will be able to help you out more than I can, they have more experience and knowledge of frogs than I do. But I would definitely be concerned about the redness/scuffing on the stomach because it can indicate a possible infection- especially if it is an open wound. Can you get your frog to a vet?

    I don't know much about your frogs other symptoms. Like I said, the other members will be able to help you, they are all very helpful here

    Take the frog to the vet immediately. She has an infection and is very ill.
