    Hello, irThumper have you ever heard of a website called Anapsid? If not you could check there and they may have something and if not it may direct to another website or some more helpful books. Its not a forum but more of a website just filled with all sorts of info on reptiles and amphibians. I don't know if reptiles and amphibians can get the same parasites but there is section on the website labeled parasites, and the website does cover both. They even have a couple videos showing how to dissect and explains all the organs and stuff of the frog. You should check it out you may find something and if not what your looking for you may collect some other helpful info. Good luck and it was referred to me from my vet and its all vets and herpetologist that write the articles.

    I found another really good looking book. Current Therapy in Reptile Medicine and Surgery, 1e Hardcover – December 30, 2013

    http://www.amazon.com/dp/1455708933/...I1290L12P2CMNA

    Although the title says "Reptile", it actually has a huuuge section on amphibians. It's also very up to date, as it was only published about a year ago.

    I wish I had the kind of money to buy some of these. I'm going to have to see if any of them are available through our public library.
    0.0.6 Hyla versicolor
    7.0.0 Dendropsophus leucophyllatus
    2.0.0 Homo sapiens sapiens (K & C, the *other* froglets)

    "Cleansed in the finest quality spring water, lightly killed, and then sealed in a succulent Swiss quintuple smooth treble cream milk chocolate envelope, and lovingly frosted with glucose."

    Getting some great info here, thanks very much! ^_^ Now all I have to do is figure out how to earn some extra $$ (after paying for fecal exams, frog meds, Exo-terras, etc!) to get these books!
