    The honey bath should be 15-20 minutes. Usually they will pee while in the bath.

    i left him in for about 30 minutes. He didnt pee at all still bloated. I got crickets and roaches. My brown pacman (he originally was the one bloated but he goes up and down now he is back to normal size) he eats perfectly fine even when he was bloated. My green frog ate up until the bloat. My yellow frog won't eat at all as well as the green. I even went to petco and got some "ready to eat" bites (it smells very sweet) the brown frog ate a couple pieces the green and yellow won't eat those either. The yellow frog is now loosing a lot of weight. I went and got a bigger heater (which I have to put on the outside of my tank not under it) the temperature is up to 78f and still climbing but thats just the internal temperature the bedding is slightly cool (not cold just cool) they still won't eat and the green one is still bloated.

    Hi, im thinking you may need to take these 2 frogs to a vet if the honey and the salt bath isn't working. And I know you said the brown one bloats but it will go away but in IMO I would get them both checked. For the one that is bloated all the time I think he is going to need one for sure. When you got frogs did you ever get fecal tests done for them? And the one that that is swollen all the time does he feel hard or soft and squishy when you pick him up? The one thing I noticed in your pictures that may not be helping is your substrate is way to wet, when you squeeze the substrate in your hand you want it clump and feel damp but not have water dripping. If they feel dehydrated or feel the need to go the water bowl they will. And if you got them at Christmas they may feel the crickets are not a big enough meal anymore, I had a pacman frog that this happened to. Keep trying the night crawlers, try to rub the worm under his chin and he may take it. Or another trick I find is to touch his front foot with it, this one I find works good.
