Not eating + eye infection

[GrifTheGreat]

I believe the ratio is about 1 teaspoon per ten gallons (that's what was written on another recent thread). You then soak the frog in the solution for a few minutes. You can do this up to twice a day.

The melafix soaks won't hurt, but at this point they're really not going to do much for that infection. They're more for minor stuff like a slightly cloudy eye... Kind of like putting neosporin on a gangrenous limb at this point. I just can't emphasize enough that an immediate vet visit and stronger meds is the only way this frog is getting better and the longer the delay the worse his chances of keeping that eye (or even surviving since he's so young) get.

As DV said, it is very critical that the frog receive the proper antibiotics asap. The infection does look like it is already spreading the other eye. If the infection goes septic (gets in his bloodstream) then his chances of survival will greatly decrease. Try the Melafix soak in the meantime. The correct ratio is 1 teaspoon per 10 gallons or approximately 12 drops per 1 gallon. Add to lukewarm de-chlorinated water and soak for 20 minutes. Follow that with another soak in plain de-chlorinated water. You may also add some UNFLAVORED Pedialyte to the first bath. The ratio for that is 1 ounce of Pedialyte per 10 ounces of water.

I have him in the hospital set-up right now. He finally pooped when I gave him a bath today. Going to try to force feed him this afternoon. He's very feisty considering all of this. Please continue sending me advice and sending him your prayers.

The hospital set up is the best option right now. You need to do whatever you can to stop the infection from spreading. Make sure to sanitize EVERYTHING thoroughly. Get him to a vet ASAP. What are you planning on force feeding him? Nightcrawlers or Repta-aid would be best. He needs something that he can digest easily. If need more details on force feeding, just ask. Please keep us posted.
