Lija,

MBD can be stopped, but any damage cannot really be reversed. However the bones are is pretty much how they will remain. You can get the bones to not be brittle and the hardening does reset them slightly, but most of the time if is too bad it cannot be corrected.

A drooping lower jaw is a sure sign of MBD setting in. That can be reversed, but stunted growth in a frog nearly 1 year if age will not grow much more. A two year old frog may not grow at all and remain the size you purchase it at, but you can still bring it back to good health if you are diligent. For a Pacman that is.

Graham,

A Pyxi especially a male may still have alot more growth left in him if you correct the MBD and any vitamin deficiency that it may have. This also is determined by age though.
