    Default When I should start worrying about frog pooping

    It's been a month and half since I've seen a stool from my frog. A month and half ago I fed him an adult mice the same size of my frog (4 inches), since it hadn't eaten in 3 months from it's sleep.

    I didn't feed him for about 3 weeks after I fed him that mouse though and never seen a stool. Since he was still coming at me for food, I kept feeding him worms every week (he's a year old), but not as much, since I'm worried of that mouse still in his belly.

    When should I start worrying? Should I keep feeding or? He doesn't have any signs of bloat, or ballooning, he looks just like a normal frog.

    Maybe you missed the poo. Are there any springtails or anything in the soil that could have eaten it? Or....maybe he's sitting on it...eewe

    I have always been curious of how temperature effects the digestion of horned frogs and does the effect vary between species?

    Temps are 90 on the warm side and about 78 on the cool side, humidity is about 60 percent

    That's a good question that I can't give a for sure answer on.
    I would imagine that their shouldn't be too much difference between species. Th warmer it is though the faster their metabolism is.

    Ok thank you. Now which side does he spend the majority of his time on?
    Does he seem to be bloated or appear lumpy to you?

    He spends most of the time in the hot side and middle.

    HAHA I realized why you didn't answer me second question, you answered it before I asked. LOL I apologize for that. I wouldn't worry if he's eating and acting/looking normal he should be fine.
