    To Corey( I think their 4 1/2 months old. Thanks for telling me about the dusting no wonder i have almost gone thru a can of calcium (we also have a BDragon) and Do you mix your vitamin and calcium together I was dusting Cal everyday and once a week I would do the vitamin.

    Yeah this was yesterday afternoon in his Smartwater bath. He looks so much better this morning I hed him twice last night with 4 hours in between. Finaly got the holloween foggers to work so he doesnt have to share it with the others. I am taking the moss out tonight would have done it last night but my luck when I was messin around with everything I blew a Circuit in the house and had to move everybody. Figured one more day in the swamp wouldnt hurt a dehyrated frog. Hey to everybody out there That Fluker`s Repta+Boost helped us out of a jam He looks so much better this morning he fleshed out a bit overnight to where we dont see his ribs and noggen bones so much he was even setting by the bowl with pedialite. I think we will feed him twice at night and once in the moring till his legs flesh out a bit.
    To Lynn Yeah I will be getting there hospital stuff on friday Thanks for letting me know I can give the both meds I thought I would have to wait a week between worming and metro. I went thru all their poop it looked fine (as for the other 3) Pepes Looks like baby spitup (color due to the repta milk stuff and mucus-ie but nothing moving Im sure of it looking for the last 3 days. And I was feeding them free range (bad idea) will move to the bowls tonight. Let me ask you guys this how do you keep the stuff from escaping the bowls. Been feeding them (pin heads and Fruit flys) although we ran out last night ( Damn dragon eating me out of house and home LOL) They had some wax moths mmm mmm (I Know I blew there Diets and fed them all Fast food They loved it) I think it the thrill of the hunt it was fun watching the dragon leap to catch flying prey. Peppe had the last of the pinheads and flys and Repta milk. Thanks guys for all the good advice I am feeling better about things

    Boyfriend said that he was probably stressed like every Boy teenager in a room full of teenage girls (im thinking we have three girls) Allowishus is hard to tell cause He/she is a smaller breed little Grass Frog)

    Hi Jessie,


    >hospital stuff on friday Thanks for letting me know I can give the both meds I thought I would have to wait a week between worming and metro. I went thru all their poop it looked fine (as for the other 3) Pepes Looks like baby spitup (color due to the repta milk stuff and mucus-ie but nothing moving Im sure of it looking for the last 3 days.

    Since this little guy is so young ----double check with the vet as to using both at the same time. He may recommend the panacur 1st?
    More importantly, does the vet know the frog's weight in grams !!!!!!! Please make sure. Use a little food scale?
    Put him in a covered container, then ....of course subtract the weight of the container.

    It just about impossible to 'see' the parasites. It also depends on the parasite and its stage of development. You could get a fecal done.

    When supplementing for several frogs housed together the disadvantage of supplementing too infrequently can occur.
    If you decide to give vits twice a month - you want to be real sure all the frogs got a proper dose!

    Consider a routine / alternating the use of more than one vit/calcium product. ie:

    Rep-Cal Supplements
    Rep-Cal Supplements Calcium
    Repashy Superfoods :: RETAIL SALES :: By Product Name :: Calcium Plus :: Calcium Plus 4 oz BAG - Repashy Ventures - Distributor Center

    Get some 2-5 week old crickets. You want large 'pin-heads'. Crickets will not climb out of a bowl. I use clear glass so the frogs can see through. For the first few days, overlap feeding both ways until you are sure they are climbing up onto the bowl. The bowls I use are in the supermarket in the re-usable food container section. ?rubber maid/ or pyrex? with 3" sides.
