Hi there,
I have 2 whites tree frogs. The smaller one has an injury to its leg.
I have no idea how it happened, but it looks like the skin has been pushed back and has dried.
I have no idea what caused it. I have a reptile radiator that has a cover on it, so there is pretty much no chance the frog could have held the leg against that.
The cage is large, sterile and at about 50% humidity.
The two frogs spend all day and night "cuddled" up together and so I wonder if the one frog has been lying on the other ones leg?

I have looked at the leg again and it is not septic, or wet at all. The wound looks dry and almost scabbed over. It doesn't look like a fresh wound. So I wonder how long the frog has had the injury. I don't handle them every day. But I clean the cage and spray and feed with locusts 4 times a week.
The cage has kitchen towel substrate. Is 2x2x2 foot. So overcrowding didn't cause this?
It is a real mystery and also really sad, as I love my beautiful little guys!

Does anyone know what this could be from, or how to treat it???
Thanks!!!
