I got a Budgett frog let's say around April or March at a reptile expo.
He has been great and grew rather rapidly. Yesterday (June 29th, 2013) I went outside and dug up alot of earthworms for him to eat.
This morning (June 30th, 2013) when I woke up I notice he was slightly off balance on his side with his left leg sticking out. I changed his water and only put in about two to three inches of water so he he can sit on the floor of the tank. He seems rather bloated/full and I'm worried he may have eaten something he shouldn't. The last time something like this happened to my previous baby budgett frog he died after a few days and I tried everything the forum told me to do. And very clearly the right side of his body/tummmy is very bloated making him lopsided.
