    Default Sick Red Eyed Tree Frog Help Please

    My female red eye I have had for 6 months without problems has not moved since Monday night and she is all of a sudden looking sunken in. Is there anything I can do to save her? The temp has. Regulator there have been no recent changes to habit there is plenty of food available and water. We fog the tank and mist it a few times everyday. She has never been a great eater but she has never acted like this any advice would be greatly appreciated.

    Hi Kittin007,
    Pics of the frog and tank may reveal something, but as always, a vet visit with fecal exam is usually the best course of action.
    Posts some pics and someone might see something to help.

    What are the day and night readings of humidity and temps?
    What is your water source and what are you feeding? Are you providing supplements?

    When was the last time you know the frog ate and when was the last time you found fresh droppings?

    My RETFs are very selective eaters and don't gorge themselves like a WTF does. Mine even take turns during the winter months of which is active and which isn't. Sometimes one of mine may not move for days even. Also, drastic or fast changes in barometric pressure will effect the activity level of the frogs.
    If the frog was healthy, it can go for quite some time without a meal but any time your concerned, its best to get to a vet.

    Oh I'm so sorry to hear your frog died.

    Were they housed together?
    How old was she?
    You might consider a vet trip for your male? Just in case?
