    I wouldn't put the cork bark in the quarantine tank because you have to disinfect the cage furnishings everyday with redleg and I don't think you are going to want and bake a piece of cork bark everyday. As for the prescription I would get the same dosage and if they ask why you need a refill on the meds just be honest and let them know you didn't do nit correctly the first time and they shouldn't have a problem with it.

    Oh and I almost forgot to ask have you actually put him in a quarantine tank yet? by the sounds of your last post you haven't done it yet, if this is redleg I would get him in there ASAP or you are going to run out of time. After redleg hits a certain stage it is very unforgiving and there wont be any saving the frog. If you already have disregard this message.

    Doing it today, as of know what im going to put in it is: papertowel, a big tree thing with leaves on it and a hideout below, and a waterbowl (mine is some rock texture one so any suggestions on an easier to clean on, mine likes to grow green stuff that i wipe off with papertowel). Will this be too open and stresful or should it be fine?

    If you can get your hands on some oral tetracycline that may work. Are you 100% sure its redleg? The baytril has to be doing something because im thinking for the length of time she had it that he would pretty much be near death. What has your vet told you and whats his/her thoughts? Can you post a picture on photobucket or similar site, that would be very helpful.

    I noticed you first posted about your frog Slurp having problems back in july and that her brother died from redleg. Also that you were suspecting her to have MBD and said her legs where pink and that you thought she had maybe got the redleg. If this is correct I highly doubt its redleg because in that amount of time if it hasn't cleared up yet your frog would have passed by now or would be almost near death and from that picture of her IMO she doesn't look ill with red leg to me. I could be wrong because I don't own any whites but I know about red leg. Was the one that died of red leg diagnosed by a vet? You need to post a pic of her belly and thighs. Also does she have any open sores? if so you could put some Neosporin without pain reliever on the open sores to help with healing. But again im really starting to wonder if this is whats wrong.

    Ill try posting pictures tomorrow if I have time. Her bottom half through legs gets pretty red when shes riled up. I am not sure if the other died of red ; leg but it is supposed that's what happened. Shes on her second dosage of baytril this time for 2 weeks and she is back to eating and being active. Redness isnt going away though
