Deedub you need to make a bath of luke warm de-chlorinated water with 4 drops of honey dissolved in the water. Make sure the bath is no deeper than up to his chin. Pour some of the water over his back and onto his vent. When the water cools have another warm bath ready that is the same depth, but only dechlorinated water no honey in this bath. Soak again until the water cools. Gently massage the right side where the bulge is in small circles from the shoulder where it begins and move back to his hip. Do this until he goes.
This can take a couple days, but most will go right after the baths. When the second bath is cool make sure you put warm de-chlorinated water in his water dish and place him back into his home in the water dish and leave him be.
Keep me posted.
Grif is always my go to guy with impactions concerns, it's always just a huge turd though, haha. I just wanted to add that the Lukewarm water temperate that I use is roughly 85-90 degrees. I do that temp with honey and my frogs will usually go, if they don't go during the first bath, they'll almost ALWAYS go during the second non-honey soak. This is a very good technique and it WORKS.
Good luck I hope your frog passes that log, I'm sure it's just a big poop she's been holding. I've seen some MASSIVE pacman poops.
LOL, I have never been so excited to see something ****. She ate a big dubia from tongs. Thats when I noticed the lumps on the left side. The big one on the right is probably the roach.
How many times per day should I soak?
Thanks for your help.
