I have 2 Canyon Tree frogs. They are pretty close to the same age as each other. One is about 2.5" but the other is about 1.5". A few weeks ago, the smaller frog had a hard time passing a cricket but after a few days it did passed. Since then I have seen fresh poop by her so I'm sure she's eating and isn't blocked but her body is getting very skinny. Currently I can see the bones in her lower back. She is still active at night and if I disturb the leaves that she's hiding in, she doesn't have any problems hopping away but I'm afraid she's not going to live much longer if she doesn't start putting some weight back on.
Any ideas on what might be causing the weightloss or how to help her would be greatly appreciated.
If he (I am saying He because He is the smaller of the 2 and males tend to be the small ones) is eating good each night I am not sure there is anything you can do or should be worried about. You could take a dress fecal sample to a local hero vet and have it tested to see if there is anything wrong with him that medication may help. It mate that he was so impacted and backed up he was bloated and you just aren't use to seeing him at his normal "fighting" weight....
