My little honey blue-eyed, Butter Bean, who I have had for only 29 days, has died I never got a chance to post about him or his companion, Pole Bean, on here because my comp crashed on April 10th and I got them shipped in from Mikes Phat Frogs on April 14. Pole Bean was extremely skinny and lethargic with obvious issues from day 1, so I spent a lot of time working with him to try to build him up (fecal exam for them turned up positive for Giardia). Butter Bean seemed perfectly normal in every way and hunted, ate, soaked, shed, poo'd, etc like he should. In the last week I noticed, however, that he seemed to be losing weight, and I did not see him eating. He slept spraddle legged in an upper corner of the QT tank last night and this morning I found him sitting on the flower pot in an upright position looking dried out with mottled skin... in hindsight I should have taken a picture, but I was running on 4 1/2 hrs sleep and had just completed an almost 2 hr round trip to take my dad back to work at 5:30 a.m. I went to give him a honey soak in water that was just up to his chin, left the room for a moment to get a syringe so I could drip water over his back, and when I came back into the room found out that he had seized and drowned... I took his body to the vet and requested they do a post mortem test of him (and skin slough in the honey water) for Chytrid-- I hope to God it's not Chytrid Don't know how long the test results will take. I didn't even get a chance to treat them for the Giardia yet as I was waiting to hear back about a topical version of Fenbendazole. I so looked forward to having my own actual honey blue-eyed, now he's gone and Lord only knows what will happen to my other guys if this is something seriously contagious...
