What is she doing?

[aegillesp]

I could be wrong, I think she looks bloated... I've seen others and they weren't as fat as she is, and plus she feels squishy...

Question about reptiboost... Can I use liquid calcium with it (she hasn't been eating, not even dusted crickets, and I'm worried about MBD)? Like half water half LC? or since she's so sick 1/4 LC and 3/4 water?

I have seen my male Grey Tree Frog do that many times. I took a video of it and showed the vet. And he said my frog was being "naughty" and he was super excited and he was trying to reproduce. But I'm not sure what that has to do with a female but I have seen my male do that.

Agree with Caspian and if bloating is caused by bacteria (they block lymph system and cause swelling) it should get worse and will require antibiotics.

I would not add CA to ReptiBoost; it already has CA and many other minerals in balanced doses and by adding more CA it could actually interfere with product formula.

Good luck and try to take some pics of frog today. Then you can use pics for reference the next few days in case bloating does worsen or improves .

I'm sorry I never responded to your other post.
She looks pretty healthy, she's eating (she ate 2 of four crickets last night? that's a good sign!), no poop yet? But may come soon.
Her fecals are healthy? You did have her tested, right?
Just a thought.....
maybe lay off on handling, and checking on her for a while. She may be a bit stressed?
give her some alone time, she may come around soon. In my personal experience, frogs prefer to be left alone and then usually come around. At least if there is no other eminent danger. i.e. - parasites, bacterial infection, etc.

I've left her a lone for a few days at a time, other than changing water and changing foods, and I've seen no change. Today I took her out to give her a pedialyte bath and her legs are bending when she moves, bending in a way that I've never seen. When I held her she just dangled her leg off the edge of my hand...She barely tried to jump away from me. Here are some pictures from today and yesterday... I've had her since January and after having her the first month, she's been lethargic and barely eats, she looks horrible to me...She used to be VERY bright green, she doesn't look like a healthy AGTF...

Hi aegillesp,
Sorry she is not coming around.
I think she should got to the vet .
It's been long enough. poor baby
Look for poop ! Hopefully you find some.
You'll want to get a fecal test done.
The lethargy is bothers me.

I cant seem to get any poo from her, and the doc doesn't know what is wrong with her. I might ask for some meds for a bacterial infection and see if he'll give it to me. Last time I got a fecal done (about a month or little more ago) he gave her a clean bill of health, but I she just seems to not get any better... he said she had a little MBD, but I can't get her to eat. The bowl of 3 diff kinds of worms and tiny crickets didn't get eaten and I put them in there for 3-4 days, they were moving up until the last day. I did put some Phoenix worms, which are so full of calcium that you dont need to dust them, and I didn't see them there this morning. I bought a leaf bowl (there is pictures above) and put them in there instead of on the bottom, she didn't touch the wax worms.... good sign?
