    Default Please help me my frog has a greenish weird lump on her stomach.

    ok i bought my frog and it never showed any sighs of it being unhealthy ever it always had an appetite and always acted like a normal pacman frog. i have had her for about 2 months and just recently the past maybe 3 weeks or so i have noticed this greenish discolored lump on her one side i kind felt it (massaged it) and it felt squisy in some parts but hard in others.... and i saw her moving it from one side of her stomach to another she was acting like it was bothering her like she knows its there she was trying to pull it off with her legs pushing it but having no success because it is inside of her body.. and i was just wondering if someone could help me identify what this is or what but she has been eating right and acting normal has a very good appetitei feed her 2-3 crickets everyother day dusted every week and she has been pooping good to.. but recently she tried pooping and did a little bit and she was pushing still trying to go but i dk if she is costipated or what..... only a small amount of poo came out... she does not show any sighs of it hurting either when i touch it or inspect it the humidty levels are good 70% most of the time and she has a open water source for her to enjoy along with lowest temp of 75F and highest 85F..... i use terratorium plantation soil for her substrate so i was wondering if someone could help me idtentify this lump and tell me if she is going to be ok or if it is a tumor she can live with but will look odd on her forever or what on these pictures the lump does not look that big becuase for some ungodly reason sometimes it pokes out more and sometimes it only pokes out a little if someone could help me with this it would be very much appreciated thankyou.

    What you're looking at is her stomach........looks like she swallowed some substrate. give her a warm soak in de-chlorinated water with a drop of honey in it........just deep enough to come up to her chin. Do that for a good 10 minutes. The honey works as a laxative and will hopefully help. If it is a bad impaction, you need a vet.

    Good Luck!!

    Brand doesn't matter, but natural is best. Just don't use flavored honey or any of the weird spreads.

    Regular honey is fine. She will be stressed some. The best way to pick them up is by scooping them up from behind. It is the least stressful way to do so. Just move the substrate away from her body avoiding her face and scoop her up from directly behind her gently. Once she is in your hand you have to make sure she doesn't jump out. Water should be Luke warm or slightly warm to the touch. You can place 2 or 3 drops in the water and stir it so the honey dissolves. Then place the frog in the bath. You can do this in a bowl outside of her enclosure. try not to have the room you're doing it in very brightly lit and place the bowl on the floor with paper towels that have been dampened under the bowl. This way if your frog resided to jump out it won't be injured from a high fall.
