My Big-eyed tree frogs (pic heavy)

To be honest i did not, because at first i thought it could be trauma. Later i realized it can not be trauma, because the frog uses its leg normally and that was confirmed by a vet. Unfortunately he could not help more, because amphibians are not in his specialisation and there are no herps in Bulgaria at all.

Fellow terrarists suggested that this could be a parasite, but since there is noone who can actually diagnose the problem we cant take a treatment... I just soak the frog in distilled water every day for 5-10mins to pull out possible toxins.

Distilled water isn't good for frogs as the water is so pure it can cause the frog to lose electrolytes making it weak and susceptable to more germs and infection.

Wow! That is an awesome frog, just beautiful!
Where did you find a frog like this? Because every big eye tree frog I've seen is one solid green color, I have never seen one that looks like yours.

As far as i know this species is from the mountains in Tanzania where the water is close to pure and i just soak it for few mins, because of the distilled water's abilities to pull out toxins. Nothing more. But i might be wrong.

Thanks! When i got them i was pretty amazed of the color as well They are imported from either Czech republic or Netherlands, not sure.

Wow, that's a gorgeous frog.

Sorry about your other one...sometimes if nothing else is available, soaking a sick frog in pediatric electrolyte formula (available at most supermarkets over here) helps a lot to help the frog fight disease.

Just be careful with the dosage. I had a young leaf folding frog that was losing condition and I soaked him in a formula that was too dense and he died in a few hours.

But I must say your leptopelis are amazing! I have a feeling those are not big eyed tree frogs, the name slips my mind now but I will check in A Complete Guide of Frogs of Southern Africa by Vincent Curruthers when I see the book next.

We have the L. natelensis in South Africa and 2 more species just north of South Africa. Still want to start a breeding project with them in the future.

I got them as leptopelis vermiculatus and according to pictures i in the internet i find of this species they look just the same, except the color. I'd be thankfull if you check if they are really vermiculatus tho

Here are some fresh pics of Groggy
