    Mineral oil helps. I've used it for my little frog. I can help you with it if this is what you want to do.

    How do you do this Mineral oil procedure? And where do I get it and which one? Is this something you put in the water or the frog has to swallow it?

    Also how many more honey bath attempts prior to doing this?

    Yea Dan, I'm going to need help with this if he does not go with honey baths. How often do you have to do the mineral oil thing and how exactly did you go about it?

    It is to be administered orally. It has no taste so the frog will not try and spit it out. If you have a feeding syringe you can use that. You buy just plain mineral oil. Stores will sell it with the laxatives and stomach reliefe medications.

    Only give a dose every 3 to 4 days. The oil will soften the blockage and you will be able to feel the stool soften inside the frog. Continue soaks while using the mineral oil.
