I have recently purchased two WTF. One is doing great, is of a healthy weight and eats whenever presented crickets. They are both somewhat active at night, the heatlhy frog seems a bit more active of course. Sadly the other Whites is very skinny, he was pretty skinny when I got him but he seems a little worse now. He usually refuses food, but I can get him to eat 2 or 3 crickets with some effort. Both frogs were eating voraciously when I first purchased them.. not sure why he has become worse off.
I've been checking their feces, the healthier frog is having larger rice grain shaped stools. The other frogs are not entirely watery but they are a bit more watery and smaller. The more concerning part is the smell, it is TERRIBLE.. it was so bad I cleaned out their temporary tank outside with a hose because when I took a whiff and it smells more like cow poop than frog poop..
Just some additional info, I recently moved the frogs to a temporary tank, a 35g hex that is 24" tall, they are now back in their 25x18x25 enclosure. I am keeping the day time temperatures around 80F-85F; false bottom heated water + a heat lamp to bask. Night time temps are 75F-77F. I am feeding the frogs every other day. The healthy one is eating 6 crickets per feeding, the other frog is eating 3 at the most. I am dusting once a week.
I don't want to say it's parasites yet, these are new frogs. I suppose the frog could just be stressed from being moved from the pet store to to a temporary tank and now in his final home..
I do not know if there are any vets near by that will see a frog. Is there anything I could do until I find a vet? I am pretty bummed, never really had a sick frog before. Any help would be appreciated.
