Pacman leg problems

[infamouschris7]

I've had my pacman since February and is a pretty decent size now but I'm concerned about his back legs. When he is sitting there its seems as if his legs look broken. He hasn't fallen or been dropped. His legs are almost straight back. His legs are still mobile and has control over them but doesn't seem to want to rest them under his stomach like other frogs. What could cause this? He eats fine and everything else is good. It doesn't seem to bother him but I'm just concerned as to why his legs are like this. He isn't as active as when I first got him and his legs weren't always straight back like this.

If we can't see the frog we can't help. Post pictures of the frog and his legs so we can see what you're describing.

Here his legs arent stretched all the way back. Sometimes ill find his legs almost completely back

Does he shake?

[GrifTheGreat]

Something is definitely wrong. Do you dust his food with calcium and a multivitamin?

[infamouschris7]

I haven't seem him shake

[infamouschris7]

I dust occasionally. Not all the time. I feed him nightcrawlers. I no longer feed him crickets

[Wizzlewuzzle]

Don't dust anymore. Feed a pinky to fuzzy mouse twice a month. The vitamins are causing the problem.

Can you elaborate on how/why the vitamins are causing the problem? I'm not saying that I don't believe you--I'm just trying to learn.

Vitamin overload can cause this, but it can also be the opposite in some situations. Rickets is a disease caused by lack of vitamins and can cause paralysis and loss of mobility.
