White's tree frog sick?

[whitestreefroglady]

Hey, has it seen a vet yet? Sometimes these frogs can recover a little to hide their symptoms but then they return all over again.. If you haven't gotten it checked yet I suggest you book an appointment just to be sure everything is fine.

Yes I did bring Steve to the vet. The doctor said it was a mild infection and put him on a course of baytril injections.

Might be why he was having issues with his shedding... How's he doing? Back to normal I hope?

Strange he would give him Baytril injections for a MILD infection... why not topically?

Steve does seem like he's healthy now. Still not quite a voracious eater but that might be because he's still upset about all the handling. Or he's just not quite the pig James is!

I'm not sure why she gave me injections rather than topical. The topical sure would have been easier!

That's for sure! I just learned the same thing about Ivomec/ivermectin and frogs from Lija. No need to feed medicated worms, or force feed invermectin in oral form, when you can get the topical form and just use it on the outside of them... lol I know better for next time Not that I want to have a next time... parasites, guh!!!
