It's been about 2 1/2 weeks or so since I've been gone, and I've had a lot going on since then. One thing that's new is I moved Honey-Lime into the cushy new Exo-Terra setup with Lucy Blue-Eyes (his previous companion, Shirley, will be housed in another Exo-Terra with Martha now). At first he was all over the place like he's been lately, climbing and jumping and being generally hyper and weird and not eating, and strangely he didn't pay ANY attention to Lucy at ALL-- but she sure noticed HIM! This is what I came upon this morning, Lucy smoochin Honey while he was taking a bath, LOL!
More pics and news to come...

Aw, so cute!
Note- irThumper, it is my understanding that you have successfully treated some ill frogs before. Ever had to deal with red leg? My new blue eyed whites, Oliver, has this horrible condition. Please respond to my post about it or pm me. Thanks

I'm glad to see you back! You've been missed around here and I'm relieved to learn it was nothing serious. Granted, computer crashes are no good, but at least you and the family (froggles included, of course) are ok!
That picture is adorable!
Glad you're back! I want to know all about your setup!
Dont you... ever... be without a computer again.... lmao
Thanks guys! It was hard being gone. Computer problems are SO frustrating, especially when needing to look up or get things to help our froggles get well or stay at their best
Frogger00, I've not dealt with red leg in froggles (and hope I will never have to!) but here are some of my research resources on it.

Have you posted pics of the problem areas on your guy? I know I was concerned with Honey in that his legs and lower belly seemed quite reddish, but there didn't appear to be any broken capillaries or raw areas. He was just spending so much time jumping and splatting himself on the décor and walls that he was making himself reddish. That and it seems stress/extra blood flow makes WTFS already reddish legs look even darker. How long have you had Oliver? It could be he's dealing with a lot of stress right now and it's making the color change. Definitely would help to see pics.
Just found this... ironically the original poster is also called Thumper! And no it isn't me, lol
