Hi Kathleen - so sorry to read of your frog, I hope she recovers soon - have faith in her.

I'm writing as I would like to expand your query as there doesn't seem to be a suitable forum section. Hibernation - do all frogs and toads hibernate/estivate at some time? I'm a newcomer [ 2 years of frog keeping ] but during that time none of my 14 terrestrial species have shown any sign of hibernating/estivating. Could this be because they have been kept 'seasons' free by a steady range of temperature/humidity and always provided with food and water? Do they need an opportunity to hibernate? The nearest to hibernation is by my False Tomato Frogs [Dyscophus guineti,] which disappear into the substrate for 10 days or so then surface apparently fit and well.
