I'll do that asap. I do have liquid vitamins but I'm not sure whether they're useful for the frogs...

I'm giving him a 1:10 pedialyte soak right now, I can see a bit of shed around his arms but he...

Sorry forgot to say, the water is just regular de-chlorinated tap water. I live in the suburbs so should be free of contaminants. I have a feeling the calcium has expired, still haven't found it...

The only baby electrolytes we can get here are flavoured... Heather sent me some unflavoured Pedialyte about this time last year, and I froze the remainder... can I use this?
I haven't had a fecal...

I noticed Ned (Litoria aurea) was a bit lethargic so I put him in a clean hospital tank a couple of days ago.. Yesterday I noticed what I though was a prolapse, so I gave him a lukewarm sugar bath,...

Paul, no I've moved the remaining four frogs to another tank with paper towels, I'll have to gut the main tank and clean it thoroughly again. I'll be keeping them on paper towels from now on.
Lija,...

Froakie died last night. It's pretty sad, considering he was my first frog. I'm trying to figure out what caused his and Treecko's death, but I'm coming up dry. Maybe the moss was contaminated or...

Okay, so I was taking some pictures of Froakie in the quarantine tank to see if the camera could pick up anything my eyes couldn't see.. lo and behold! The flash picked up some very small lighter...

bump! Froakie still alive (that makes one day longer than Treecko.) Still lethargic and dull coloured, perks up a little when I spray him with water. Still very sleepy, and I'm trying to keep him...

Hi Paul, yes the calcium I use (Flukers is the only one available here) has D3 added
I have looked around in the past for a multivitamin supplement, but to no avail (see problems with living at the...

The regular tank

Hi, I was at school so couldn't reply earlier. The frogs are so small I really don't think they could handle eating crickets even if I could get them- New Zealand is a terrible place to keep frogs...

Bumping this. Treecko died the night after I posted the last update, and now I have another frog who seems to be sick with the same thing. After Treecko died I cleaned out the terrarium thoroughly,...

Checked on Treecko tonight and he seems to have taken a turn for the worse... Did a poop but it was badly formed and smeared everywhere, saw some undigested fruit flies. His rear end was reddish,...

Hey everyone, long time no see.

Unfortunately, I have another sick frog. This time it's Treecko, one of my green and golden bell frogs (Litoria aurea).
He's extremely skinny, weak, lethargic and...

Hi everyone :)

On the 20th December, my family and I will be going on vacation. Our destination is a three hour drive away, and we will be away for two weeks. Obviously, I'm going to have to take...

Thanks Heather and Ryan :) yes, they're all pooping and eating well. I've noticed since making an effort to feed every day without fail, and dusting with Repta-Boost 1-2 times a week that they have...

Up until July, they were fed undusted mealworms, most of which were too large, so they only ate the smaller ones. They were kept on bark and had no lighting.

Now they are being fed fruit flies...

I've had my six Green and Golden Bell frogs since around June. They were being kept in poor conditions and fed badly at the time that I rescued them. Since then, it seems they haven't grown at all....

A lot of frogs (mine included), have pinky-red tinged legs as a result of the muscle underneath pale coloured skin. It can get a deeper colour if blood flow to the muscles is increased (heat or lots...

I was surfing TradeMe (New Zealand equivalent of Craigslist/eBay), when I found these seven Litoria aurea up for sale... they're in an even worse tank setup than the ones I rescued off the same site...

Thanks Carlos :) I've removed two small poops from his enclosure. They're soft but well formed. I'm currently looking closely at one of the poops and there are pieces of what I suspect to be...

Hey everyone,

I may just be overreacting, but something has seemed off about one of my juvenile Litoria aurea. I can't quite pinpoint it, but he seems to have a duller colour and is a little...

Obviously it's up to you... I know there are a lot of people on this forum who will go to any length to save the frog... Dr Frye must have thought there was a slim chance because he still suggested...

Yes, quite a few :) I'll upload them to an album when I have the time. They're so much fun to photograph!

I fed them each a couple of small earthworms, after rinsing them in de chlorinated water :) they seemed to enjoy them and a couple of days on they seem absolutely fine.

I've started my own fruit...
