    Default African bullfrog strange behaviour

    My african bullfrog seems to have lost his hunting mode as he only eats if the food is next to him as before he would jump on anything, also he is digesting his food minutes after he has eaten this is very strange can anyone help starting to get worried thanks

    Hello Jack! What do you mean he is digesting his foods in minutes? If he poops normal after eating that is OK and not the food he just ate. About lost of interest in hunting, maybe he figured out food is coming to him... so why hunt? Good luck !

    Now that does not sound like normal digestive process! What is frog's diet? Have you ever treated for parasites; and if so please describe. Any local veterinarians available to do a fecal test?

    Save one animal and it doesn't change the world, but it surely changes the world for that one animal!
