    He looks like he needs to poop. feel his right side. if there is a firm spot there then he needs to poop. You can soak him in Luke warm de-chlorinated water with 3 to 4 drops of honey disolve in it. This acts like a natural laxative for them and provides an energy boost.

    keep us posted.

    You have already gotten some great advice from everyone. If it is a scoliosis, it may not progress any further and the frog can live a good life. Good luck with him/her......I hope a good poop or 2 solves the problem!!

    So no luck yet. I soaked him and he has not pooped. I use a small tupperware container for his baths and then I put that in a larger rubbermaid container, in the case that he jumps out. He hates his baths and jumps out every time.

    The water should be no deeper than up to his chin. Only put honey in the first bath. The rest you give him should be just luke warm de-chlorinated water.

    Yeah, I only put honey in the first bath. I am going to bring him by the pet store on Saturday and see if they can help (Saturday is when the "expert" is in). My boyfriend told me to return him, but I feel bad and I don't want to return him just because he is a little different, I tend to fall in love with less fortunate animals. But if it is something that is fixable and makes him more comfortable, then bonus!
