Thread: Problem.

  1. #1

    Default Problem.

    I keep seeing my toads stool being kinda "mushy" if it makes any sense. I just saw a pile of a white-ish brownish goop, has alot of little black dots. It kinda worries me. Any suggestion? My toads stool ussually is solid.

    Itll have to be by phone. SO since Iam on nintendo wii. I can take it. But id have to send it to someones email from my phone. Because apparently the wii operates on a search engine called "opera" kinda bad i know. But also I noticed her poop before was liquidy. It was brown and it stank of a dump. xD so I know that certainly was a dump.

    If anyone could make a fake e-mail (i can understand no one wanting to give their email to a stranger). Then I can send it to that said email from my phone to the said email and then the person could post it? D: Again Iam on wii. I cant really upload pics on here.

    Also if this helps, she goes into the dish alot and stay t here for hours on end. If shes breeding, I kinda want to breed her. I wonder if I can cross breed a cane toad? Like hmmmm breed it with an american toad. Or a sonoran toad or something. I mean once I had my african clawed frog*Rip* trying to mate with a bullfrog(Was doing water changes).

    I also noticed petstore animals tend to get sick easily. Like I got my turtle from a breeder it never got sick not once. But when I got it a partner from a petstore down on pa. The other turtle was sick and I took it to the vet. It was in bad shape.

    anywho Iam just worried about her.

    You should take her to the vet along with a feces sample.

    Not that easy. Is it worms or protozoa?
    They have different treatments.

    Do they know how to use a microscope and do they know the differences between protozoans and worms? And if so, which drug to use on which parasite? If the answer is no, then they need to go back to vet school.

    Is there a general medicine? She just did a smaller goop.
    Iam never buying from a petstore ever again. Bad people they are.

    No, there is metronidazole for protozoans and fenbendazole for worms, but there is no drug that I am aware of that kills both.

    Could I treat everything? Like first treat for parasites, then worms, then whatever is left to treat? Or would this harm my toad?

    The protocol my vet uses is treat for prototozoa first, wait about a week then treat for worms. It's not a good idea to hit the frog with both drugs at the same time. It's just too much for their systems to handle all at once.
