A vet appointment question.

[Tubby0512]

What if its some sort of worm under the skin? Or some sort of infection? Well i'm bringing a poo sample just in case. Does it have to be fresh poo?

[CJ PELCHER]

The fresher the fecal sample, the better. Don't worry about under skin worms or infections; that's the reason you are paying the vet your hard earned $$ !

i have a suspicion that the frog is WC, am i right? fecal test won't hurt even if that is CB frog.
it is always better to check mark this one when you have a chance then to possibly have a sick frog later, you're going to the vet anyway, i would advise as you were planning to take poop sample with you the fresher the better as Carlos said.

well i'll keep the poop sample I have. better than nothing. Unless he does him business again than i'll use that one instead.

I put Laputa in a small critter keeper for an hour or two with high humidity inside her terrarium until she poo'd. It worked. I just scooped it off the wet paper towel I kept in there for her

When I got my last Whites tree frog (brownie) She also had a small white bump on the underside of her leg.
I took her and my others that shared the enclosure to the vet and it was a tape worm
The Dr was great she handled the frogs very carefully and very confidently.
And explained the procedure to me and removed the tape worm and brownie didn't even make a sound.

And prescribed a medicated bath with good directions.

Good luck.

Best wishes,
