    when was the last time he ate? you can try pedialyte baths, its 1|10 ratio example 1tsp pedialyte unflavored to 10 tsp water. and you can try the flukers reptiboost stuff too for emergencies.

    i have no idea. if i'm right that he thought he was trapped in the cave cause a tree was next to it then about a week i tried to force feed him. he won't open his mouth enough to get a cricket in. i will try a leal worm. i put 4 crickets in the tank he's in..he's too weak to get them now. i was not told anout flukers reptiboost or a pedialyte bath. i am thinking the pet store i whent to does not carry the stuff. i am not sure what to do now but prepare for a frog funeral :'(

    The pedialyte wouldn't be from a pet store. You should be able to get it from just about any drug store or grocery store (look in the baby/young kids section).

    I'm hoping your little guy is able to recover.

    you can also get reptiboost off internet have it rush delivered if you can, force feeding might not be a good idea if he is in that much distress.and if you do find pedialyte make sure its UNflavored PLAIN.My frog went without eating for more than a week when he was sick way more he was very ill. you might have more time then you think you just have to get him enough energy to hunt.

    I'm sorry. It might be a good idea to keep an eye on the other frogs and see if they show any sign of illness. Do you know if there are any exotic vets in your area that might see frogs? Just in case Tommy was actually sick and they get sick too? (I don't think they will but it's good to be prepared.)

    I'm sorry about your loss. You may want to run fecal tests on your other frogs, in case it was some sort of parasitic infection that could have been passed around. Better to deal with those things while the animals are still relatively healthy.
