    Default White Lipped Tree Frog... over weight?

    Hey froggers,
    So I have a question, my frog seem to ballooned in about two weeks. I've had him for about 6 months. The pet store didn't give me an age. I feed him 10 gut loaded 4 or 5 week old crickets every 3-5 days, I feed in his tank and they last approx. 4 days. I do not feed any worms as I have been told they have teeth and will bite. I don't want my Bobbles bit. And honestly they give me the heebie jeebies.
    The picture of him on the plant is from November 25 the one of him on the glass is from today December 7.

    Any opinions? Advice?

    That is a serious case of edema as a result of an internal infection or failure of kidneys and/or lymph hearts . Need to take frog to a herp vet as soon as possible for draining and antibiotics.
    Remember to take care of the enclosure and it will take care of your frog !​
