    Default Yellow Feces?

    My mother said that yesterday when she glanced in Leonidas' cage- he was pooping; and it looked yellow. Is this a serious nutritional problem that I should deal with immediately? Or is it simply something that happens? I'm worried.

    The consistency of frog poo is more indicative of health than the colour. The colour is usually a direct result of whatever the frog has been eating. What did the poo look like, in terms of shape? (Please Kurt, no more videos from Scrubs)

    Seriously, I have never seen yellow feces in frogs. I will try to ask Greg Mertz DVM this weekend when I see him what it means.

    I wasn't there when he did it, but my mom said that it was Tear Drop shaped. I have been feeding him small crickets- but I'll be switching the the regular sized ones because they are too small for him to bother with.
