Frustrated

[Sasha]

Already have an update. She just did a 360 in her tank and put her head down to the ground, her stomach looks like it's going to explode. Then I checked her butt and she's in the process of POOPING! So that means she's not impacted right? Now to figure out what causes the stiff legs.

I hope she's okay. I've heard warn baths with a tiny bit of honey mixed in the water help with constipation.

We actually had a pretty rough weekend. She would look okay sitting in her tank but then sit with her snout to the ground like she did when she was pooping but then she would flip over and convulse. I put a very small bowl in her tank with some honey water in it I didn't want to soak her because she kept having seizures and I was afraid she was going to drown herself. I woke up this morning and she is actually sitting in it right now. I have pictures of her seizures that I will eventually post. It's just hard to look at right now. I see her in different parts of her tank but I don't actually see her walk there. Last night I saw her try to walk into her water bowl and she was very twitchy. The vet opens at 8 am so I am going to call and see if I can get her an appointment today so we can get to the bottom of this.

I just feel real bad because she had been acting funny for a few weeks now but she was getting better. I never expected this to happen. I just hope it's not to late for her.

I'm so sorry. Good luck at the vet! I hope you are able to get an appointment soon.

Because of the bloating and convulsions, it sounds to me like it may be either Red Leg (Type of bacterial infection) or Dropsy. Both are treatable, but unfortunately not always curable. The vet will probably give you come antibiotics to soak her in. Separate her from your other frogs and put her in a small quarantine tank with just a paper towel substrate and a little hide. Cover the outside of the of her quarantine tank in paper to help keep her stress level down. Good luck! Hope she pulls through.
