    Hi Lynn! Thanks for link; had not seen this one. It's a good article having some discussion of Chytrid symptoms in fieldwork. Also, it offers info to help prevent spreading the disease .

    After reading this article I was surprised to see how easily nature lovers like most of us are, can accidentally help spread a plague like Chytrid . Got a few other articles on this disease and will try to cross reference symptoms later .
    Remember to take care of the enclosure and it will take care of your frog !​

    This whole website is very informative. It'll help me with my own frogs, and monitoring the bullfrog/green frog population at my nearby lake, as well as the Red legged frogs I see nearby for chytrid. Think I'm gonna bookmark this website.

    I'll also be taking more careful steps each time I go to my lake, and to other bullfrog infested areas.

    Thanks for sharing
    My Amphibians:
    1.0.0 Rana Catesbiana (Bumpy Digtoad )
    1.0.0 Pseudacris Regilla (Levi )
    1.1.0 Ambystoma Macrodactylum (Urtham and Gargan )
    2.2.0 Bombina Orientalis ( Rosa, Sasha, Aleksis, and Dimitri )

    Rest in Peace, Gnag the Nameless, Chrome, and Thermidor
