Baby bullfrog won't eat! Please help!

[The Frog Prince]

I've had my bullfrog Frederick for a few months now. He's still a juvenile frog but he's gotten to where he absolutely will not eat. I tried soaking him in warm water as suggested by someone at my local pet store. I even tried getting someone to help me insert crickets into his mouth after I pried it open with a flathead screwdriver. But he just pushes the crickets out or regurgitates them. I give him his vitamins on Mondays and Wednesdays and he seems healthy and lively but he won't eat. He has some sort of nose condition which I think might be an infection. We've been treating him with I think it was betadine without painkillers. His nose seems to be getting better but he looks like he's going to starve. And it's been at least close to 2 weeks now! Someone please help!

Oh I almost forgot to mention he's not wild. I adopted him from my local pet store.

So, he doesn't even try to hunt?
He might be constipated?

[The Frog Prince]

Well he hasn't soiled the water in his tank in awhile either. Maybe. I dunno.

I don't know much about constipation in frogs... or how to treat it, but if I were you, I would find out and start doing it before it's too late.

My parents are too cheap and selfish to take him to a vet. That's actually the reason why I'm turning here for help.

I'm sorry. I meant for you to search here for constipation relief for frogs.

Can someone tell me what to do to save him please?

[fpisarz]

has he started eating?

To treat constipation, you should try putting him in a warm (not hot! check with a thermometer) bath. Adding sugar or a drop of honey can stimulate him to poop without hurting him.
