    Yeah, way to go, Yugo! I am no vet, but intuitively I would first clean his wound thoroughly, then sew the wound (with thread and needle) or glue (this may be too toxic for the frog, however) the skin back on the wound to seal it off. Then resume with antibiotics, pedialyte solution soak, and force feeding.

    There are some areas of the leg that really look bad. Anything that is turning black is very bad and is dead tissue. If the leg begins to become gangrene it would be in a state that would most likely need to be amputated. Of course only a vet can do this so fingers crossed that it doesn't become to far gone.

    It does look better overall. Keep up what you're do g and try and get some more antibiotics if possible. His eyes are very clear and alert. and his skin color is good so he is slowly recovering.

    Which is great news. I hope the frog recovers. Thanks for what you are doing.

    His leg looks sooo much better in that video, you are doing an amazing job. I cringed the whole time you fed him (I don't know if I could do it so points to you for doing what's right.) Hope he continues to heal as he's been doing and starts eating on his own soon!
