Conditions have been the same for a very long time... They are also eating once again. Dubia roaches dusted w/ calcium.
    that is what we need to figure out, something is obviously is not right and stressing them out. But right now you gotta treat their noses, because untreated it might go to septicemia = death. fecal test gotta be done to rule out possible problem here. and step by step we should get out of all "possible" until we solve the problem. age might be a factor here too, with age body resistance to certain things are going down, same as for any other species I'd think. please don't get offended by questions, I'm trying to check out all points that might have caused this.
    what type of light bulb exactly are you using, what percentage of UVB?
    Save one animal and it doesn't change the world, but it surely changes the world for that one animal!

    Okay, to start. Sides covered and top covered. Try a more sterile setup opposed to giving them real plants. Less risk of any illnesses that are plant related. Next, nose running is a behavior exhibited when they're not getting proper vitamins, 12-12 day/night cycle, and improper heat and lighting with WTFs is not highly advised nor is heating lamps, unless your house temperature doesn't sit right for them runs too cold. Also, their are various colors whites come in. They can be both green or blue. As well as an olive green to a bright yellow or neon green. They may also be a dark purple almost black, and lots of white spots are sparse white spots are very common.

    Anyone who states otherwise should probably go look at Mike's phat Frogs and Sandfire Dragon Care. Inc

    There's also a proper WTF setup on Josh's Frogs.
