    If he is eating, give him Dusted items with calcium and d3 I believe it is called, so make sure he eats/absorbs the calcium he needs. Once he gets his calcium his bones will harden, so he could end up having permanent deformities and in general live a shorter life. But he will have a higher chance of surviving once he gets calcium and vitamins in his system

    Awsome i did dust with d3. We use exo terra brand for dusting.

    Hes walking about now and then ok, but, cant climb a single thing. I may take the water soak out. He cant get in it, and its roughly textured. Dont want him scratched up anymore because his poor little nose is all bruised up and scraped a little. Normally our husbandry is good so weve never experienced froggy health issues. Snakes, i can fix anything on a snake almost, my pythons and red tail are all abused take ins, not similar at all to frogs. Normally i make a paste with water, a drop of flour, honey, enzyme treatment, and meds. Cant paste a frog....

    Where do i locate proper setup for qt? Should i change paper towels if they get saturated? Will it help to wet the new with honey water?

    Thank you so much x. While not the best one, this learning experience has set me back a step or so. Also making a frog med box ASAP

    Is it trying to climb and failing? If it is actually trying to climb that is a very bad sign if it can't climb

    It will put its one hand on the glass or fake plant we put in for cover, but cannot grasp it. We tried to help it onto the glass at least, no froggy no stick.... the reason we think his poor neck or back is busted is because it still cant lift its head up. Seems permanently cocked down. Eyes, ear pads, and nostrils all clear. The head tilts down right behind its eyes. In the pics the bend point it almost right at the ears and looks like 2 tiny humps. 1 on either side. The pet store claimed he was fine earlier yesterday but i call bs.

    Suprised not to see liypad and lija here lol.

    Right now hes just kickin it tucked in a corner next to the pool. Looks like possible nerve damage as well. Because different point on his body keep twitching here and there. Like eye twitch followed by its side, then a leg. Fighting nerve damage myself i know twitches lol.

    Yeah I'm surprised Nobody else has come to help you as well

    But trying to climb and falling is really bad, his toe pads can't cling on to the item, so I would make something easy to climb with out toe pads, like a ramp or something

    Hi, sorry to hear your new froggy isn't well. This has been said a million times so all im going to say is I cant stand the way these big chain stores keep these poor animals, almost got kicked out of my petsmart the other day for having a few a choice words for the reptile/amphibian department because of the way they had a pacman housed. Anyway Krispy if you feel theres something else you should be doing and your not sure I would PM one of the mods that have some more experience and ask them for help. Not saying what your doing and the advice that has been given isn't good, I just get the sense you feel you want some second opinions and some other options for helping him heal and if none of them have been on lately I would just pm them myself. I wish I could give you some more advice but I don't own WTF's and I haven't had to experience MBD if that's whats up. Hope the little guy gets better for ya and good luck.

    Lol were already on it. Every id say 30 minutes it pulls a shake and stretches out. It kind of pooped? Looked like it was chunky and full of eco earth. Before it shakes and stretches it bloats its belly way out. Im going to swap the water dish for a small tupperwear lid so it can have easy access. It did peek up and hop over the water. Still seems blind to me but the layers of the eyes are all open.

    We would do another warm soak since it sort of pooped finally to possibly clear the rest, but with a cocked down head. Were afraid of it drowning

    Current temp 82
    Humidity 56%

    After the last escapade its hiding under a leaf.

    Would better pics help? Maybe one of his "episode" if i can remain calm and get a pic before i help it again? Id do a video but my cell is a piece o chit

    Btw thanks monster. I hate big store husbandry. Im actually trying to get a job up there so i can show em a thing or 2. Some of the employees heed advice others give no fks

    You have a lot in the previous post but did you try the pedilyte bath yet? And maybe if you hold his head up or put something in the water for him to rest it on maybe you could give another bath. With the shakeing and stretching and stuff I wonder if he could have severely damaged nerves from banging against the glass and im wondering if your right that he has broke something around the neck area which would also set off some serious nerve problems also I believe. IM sitting here typing this getting mad because I can just picture this poor frog at the store and if they would just take care of them properly this wouldn't be happening.
