Giant Waxy Monkey Frog help.

Ya he would need a positive fecal to determine which parasites to treat for. I get a fecal done on the first poop I see for all my frogs even if they are captive bred just to put my mind at ease. And yes stress is just brutal for frogs, I read a couple times that stress is one of the leading causes of death in captive reptiles and amphibians, it lowers there poor immune system so much. Again I hope this guy/girl makes it for ya, they are such an amazing species of frog.

Do you have any updates on the last one?

Hi Xavier, nothing major or conclusive unfortunately. The prescription is 0.5ml Baytril in 100ml water as a bath for 6-8 hours a day for 10 days. The first day the frog did just sit in the bath for 8 hours asleep but I've been lucky to get him to sit in it for half an hour every time I've tried since. Could be a sign he's feeling better of course, he's certainly strong enough to make bathing or not his decision! The rest of the time he just sits in the same spot never moving night or day the same as they all have done ever since I've had them. There's no sign of any poop to take for a fecal exam either.
On the plus side his physical appearance seems normal (no bloody secretion as in the photos). Still all a bit of a mystery I think!

Had a win with this guy finally. Night before last I was giving him his Baytril bath and he started shedding behaviour so while his mouth was open I got the Panancur into him along with three locusts and four crickets all dusted with calcium and vitamins. He ate the whole lot down and rewarded me with an excellent fresh poo this morning which I can get to the vet tomorrow for an exam. He also seems stronger and actually jumped to get away from me last night for the first time ever

Hi Diver, that's awesome to hear hes getting better. I have been watching the thread to see if this last guy was going to make it for ya after the lose of the others and this is great news.

I got the results of the fecal exam back and there's no parasites. I was actually hoping there would be so that a treatable issue had been been found but alas, no. It did turn up malamoeba though - a parasite of the livefood. While these are not harmful to the frogs as such, they do cause the feeders to be less nutritious as it affects their ability to absorb food. Apparently this is not uncommon in shop bought livefood though so therefore not the problem I'm looking for.
I'm going to have a further talk with the vet tomorrow to see if there are any other tests we can perform.
The frog remains in an apparently healthy state bar the continued dormancy.

The feeder problem is treatable, just breed your own feeder, buy a roach, cricket, grasshopper, or other feeder insect colony, and breed them to have your own healthy stock
