White's Tree Frog having trouble with his back legs - advice needed please.

Great to hear!

See of you can catch a poo sample. It sounds as though a nice panacur treatment would do him well. It's easy to tolerated and they feel so much better ridding their bellies of the infectious agents. Persistent runny poo is usually a sign needing treatment.

Everything's still looking good on night two. He took another pedi bath and ate some more dusted locusts. Legs seem normal - he was hopping around and climbing up my arm. Only problem tonight was that I couldn't get him to sit still in the soak for 15 minutes!

Changed to using paper towels as the substrate until the coco fibre arrives, it should give me a chance to spot poop easily so I can keep an eye on that too. And no risk of them shoving it into their mouths! Good to know treatment could be so easy. I'll give the vet a phone to see if he'll do a fecal, and price etc, even if it does look ok it's better to be safe

Glad we have the advice of wonderful froggers on our side.

I use a 4 cup plastic Gladware bowl. Poke air holes in the top (from the underside of the lid up). Fill it with enough water to cover the frog to his chin. His feet will get wet and he can't stick to the plastic sides of the bowl, he will just keep sliding into the water. After a few minutes of trying to climb the side of the bowl he should tire out sit in the water. Just keep an eye on him so that he doesn't stick his head under the water.
