Echo's progression (no idea exactly what's going on... and vet is more clueless than I am!)

Hi there
Whites tree frogs can get spots sometimes but i dont know the cause, its normal to have few small white ones but the green ones looks like something different, maybe Lynn or Heather will see your post and have a hypothesis.

I'm sure one of the frog experts on this forum will read this and chime in soon. The pics of your frog when the green spots were present, look very similar to what my frog looked like when he was afflicted with a bacterial infection. You say the spots are gone, so this may not be his issue at all, however, you still might want to read the post above "whites frog in trouble- please help" as they too, are dealing with this problem, and you may get some very useful info. How long has it been since your frog has eaten? If it has been a few days, you might want to start with the pedialyte soaks. Anyway, just wanted to post since I see that you haven't gotten many replys yet.

Hi! hows your little guy doing? I thought this posted when you were posting on my thread but I guess it didnt go through. I wanted to warn you as I started the post for my frog I almost felt like I waited too long to take my baby to the vet. If you have a hunch something is wrong, and he is not turning around, I would try to locate a vet in the area who does have an idea about frogs. I typed in Herp vets and my area code into google and a few popped up. By the time I was panicking I wished I had made the decision to do it sooner. It got to the point where my baby completely stopped moving and honestly..looked dead. Dont wait that long like I did. If I had done it sooner..he might be better already. If he still isnt eating do start the pedialyte. It keeps them going and really perks them up!!

I hope your froggy is doing better!

I took him to the vet last week actually... and while the vet is always willing to look things up for me, he was totally confused, especially since he had no green spots and his eyes were open (because he was angry at being handled)....

I did start the pedialyte baths yesterday, and he has been more active (slightly) and a waxworm is missing from his bowl.... but I'm not sure if he ate it or it got out somehow.

He *is* hanging out on the side of his little quarantine area rather than hiding on the bottom or in his bowl though *yay*
