    Good news - as time went on he regained normal leg function, I think it was just sore perhaps. Since he is so small I have him in a little critter keeper so even the smallest pre-built hut won't fit inside it, lol, but I have a larger container I was saving for when he got bigger, I might just move him in there prematurely. It's unnecessarily big for him, but I'll be able to fit hiding spots in there. He will take food from tongs thankfully, so I'll be spoon feeding him till I see him moving around regularly again. There was no blood or skin breakage and he wasn't holding his leg at an impossible angle, so I am glad that he regained normal movement. I will still keep an eye on the little guy though. Thanks for the advice!

    How large is his current container? They don't need something so small that no pre-made hut would fit in it. A 5 gallon is fine for a baby.

    Also, there is nothing about coco-fiber bedding that will hurt your frog. In fact, it's less likely to cause infection than paper towels (since if you skip a day changing out bedding, paper towels can start harboring bacteria). Plus the frog will like it more if it can burrow. The toxic shock in your last frog had nothing to do with cocofiber bedding; it was almost certainly due to something else. If maintained properly, it is a very safe and sanitary bedding material.
