White's tree frog prolapse

[teslas intern]

Actually I would wait a few days before feeding him... And when you do feed him, give him something soft. What do you typically feed your frogs? Definitely avoid meal worms, and lean towards lateralis roaches, or crickets as your staple, in this case you might try wax worms, because they are soft. In any event don't shock his system too badly, such could cause diarrhea, which could trigger additional prolapses I'd imagine. Hopefully others with experience will comment, as I'm going off of posts I've seen recently, and logic, not experience...

Thanks, I think I will wait a couple of days to feed him just to make sure he's had time to heal. I feed my other frogs crickets mostly. I Haven't had much luck with them eating mealworms. Since I just got him Saturday afternoon I haven't had a chance to feed him yet but if I'm able to find them I'll pick up some wax worms. Thanks for the advice!

Wow that looked pretty nasty, I'm glad it went back in. Definitely seconding the recommendation to hold off feeding in case it triggers another prolapse.
