    Default Help!!!

    I went on an emergency trip out of state and left my frogs and pets in the care of roomies. I get a phone call, a few days in, saying my poor baby Nica- my Cuban Treefrog- is on her back and twitching. They pick her up and say she's alive and moving but she's twitching.

    They keep an eye on her and I get back. It's much worse. She's spasming and can't seem to walk at all. Her hands clench and her back legs lock up.

    All of my other frogs and critters are fine. I called the local vets in my area that treat frogs but they refuse to treat a Cuban (I live in FL so that's no surprise.) Everything I have looked up online is a dud.

    I've had frogs all my life but have never seen this before. Any help??

    *I am gonna try and video it. Maybe that will provide more insight.
