    Unhappy White Spots and Swollen Front Legs

    I found out yesterday when cleaning my FBT tank that my main breeder male has small raised white spots all over his front legs. They are not a fungus as they are actually a part of the skin and cannot be removed.

    Also on these legs, the innermost fingers are very swollen and are turning "dead skin" colour. The best way I can describe it is it looks like when you put a bandage on a wet wound and leave it covered for a couple days. His front legs are very swollen and underneath they look purple. Almost like a bruise or blood blister.

    He also has a small brown spot on his one back leg.

    He doesn't seem to be in any pain. He is still bright green, eats regularly, is active, mates and never hides. The other frogs in his enclosure have all been checked and I have seen nothing wrong with them. My male has been quarantined until the situation can be resolved.

    One other thing to add that may not have anything to do with his condition : the past 2 clutches of eggs he has fertilized have all been stillborn. Could this have any connection?

    Unfortunately I do not have a camera that can capture his condition so I can't provide a picture. I have searched for hours online and have not found an answer.

    Has anyone ever experienced this? Or knows what I'm dealing with?

    I have no exotic vets in my area so taking him to a vet is not an option.

    Please help. I can't lose my frog. He is the best breeder I have ever had.
