the first frog I bought has a withered looking foot. I thought maybe he'd been born like that?
I've not heard of chytrid causing a loss of limbs and I think he'd have been sick first if he bought the disease into the tank
From what I saw of that frog when you first got it there was no disease. It is highly likely it was born that way. I have seen several with deformities including deformed and extra linbs. That's what happens when us humans are hell bent of saving them all. lol
A store can have a good reputation and still unknowingly get diseased animals in. Chytrid is tricky and took a while to detect and learn how to treat it.
Here is a site with treatments. To my knowledge the only method that works is the Lamisil treatment. I would not waste my time with the other BS.
Chytrid Fungus Facts and Treatments
I am guessing that ADF are not immune to chytrid fungus like ACF are?
thought I'd update...the others are ok. so far!
keeping my fingers crossed as I know something like chytrid fungus could take a while to show.
they appear normal atm though. will have to wait and see how it goes
