    Default Worried about Stanley/Bernice, bloated?

    I'm assuming that Stanley is actually a female, due to size, age and a lack of nuptial pads. She's been eating like crazy lately, 3-4 nightcrawlers a night and growing pretty quickly. Tonight I thought she looked either fat or possibly bloated.

    She ate dinner tonight, although she got frustrated with missing the worms (she has awful aim) and only ate one. She has been active, for a pacman, and behaving like her usual adorably grumpy self. All the water I use is treated tap. Her substrate was completely changed out about a week ago. Her last poop was that same day, about a week ago. Temps are good and humidity is between 80-82%. After I placed her back in her terrarium she burrowed down like she normally does. These pictures were taken post-dinner tonight.

    I'm worried about her. This girl is the apple of my eye. What do you guys think, is Bernice sick?

    If she eats as much as u say... I think thats normal... Just soak her in warm water to ease pooping... I think thatll do the trick

    She looks like she needs to pee and yes maybe even poop. A warm 80° soak like was mentioned above will help.

    I think you have a nice fat frog.

    Thank you all so much! I will definitely do the soak. Whew, this frog mama was really worried there for a minute.

    We have urine! The soak worked within seconds, amazing. She didn't poop but she peed a lot. She's looking like her normal chubby self, again. Thanks, again, everyone!
