    That's good to hear, please change his water often and feed him. I'd still watch him for white spot(s) coming back, his weight and appetite, and brown muck. Hope everything turns out okay.

    Very glad to hear he's getting better

    Heather, Patsy, and Hoppity100 have been giving you excellent advice. If you want your frog to live, you must do as they say, such as answering questions, no matter how embarrassing or grim the truth may be, working hard, and if need be, spending every last penny on saving the frog.

    This is no time to be upset, or feel guilty. This is the time for action. Hope is there, and it is getting stronger. Now, lets make your parents proud, and save that little guy, with, or without their help!

    That's great that he seems to be doing better. Don't give up though, be religious with cleaning and the Neosporin. You might be tempted to slack a little because he looks better but don't. Listen to Heather, get some Reptiboost. He's lost some vital nutrients that a few crickets aren't going to help regain them.

    Hoppity these are the kinds of comments that get you in trouble. I won't point out the rest at this time, but you need to be less abrassive and more sympathetic toward this member. They just lost their frog and they don't need you being rude and driving them away.

    You are not without mistakes so don't point fingers at others mistakes. People make mistakes and must learn from them.

    This is a warning. Please be more helpful.

    Thank you!
