    10days. 2 days ago she got a quarter inch out. When I place her in her dish she trys and goes. Water is at a good temp, under her light (the light is barely turned on) for humidity. Well she is definitely hungry, she was in her eating posture last night.
    If I keep feeding her will it plug her up more? Or will it push what's stuck out?
    Her last meal was Saturday night. She had a 2/3 inch nightcrawler piece dusted with repta boost.

    It can go either way. Sometimes feeding soft foods helps push the blockage out and other times it makes the blockage worse.

    Its up to you. Continue the soaks and dust with the Repta Boost. If this does not help pass the blockage a Vet will be needed.

    Yes until they become too weak to try anymore. By that time a bacterial infection can set in and cause the frog to go into septic shock which ends in death.
