    I got 2 vines and a cave ledge today. Also why when I look at other photos of nose rub it's a ion dot when mine is like a black scratch or a brown dot?

    Can't answer you on this one. The only one that nose rubbed was a toad and neosporin took care of that.

    A photo showing nose rub (similar to uninjured frog photo in post no. 6) would help get better idea of damage extent .
    Remember to take care of the enclosure and it will take care of your frog !​

    I had this problem once with my smooth-sided toad. I applied Neosporin twice daily because my vet said that twice daily was alright. Other vets may tell you different. I can tell you that it took several months for my toad's nose to heal completely with the pigment back to the original color. I can post photos of his nose when rubbed and how it progressed. I can also tell you that we were on a 10 day vacation when the rub occurred. We boarded our toad with the reptile store owner that we purchased him from (and have known for several years). We sent our terrarium and everything just like it was at home, and within 7 days he had rubbed his nose. Not sure anything I said is actually helpful, but I am empathetic for you with your baby having rubbed his nose.
