    Default Re: Pacman frog MBD help

    Perhaps get some blood work done to see if it has improved and x rays to see how far it has progressed. Although, this might not be feasable.

    If the animal cannot feed by itself and doesn't move at all then I'm afraid it's best to put it down. In this state, it wouldn't survive in nature and keeping it alive is propably worse than putting it down. However, if it does start moving about and feedig by itself then it's fighting and despite deformities, will be able to live a happy enough life. It might take time. It will tell you what it wants to happen. A frog that wants to stay alive will feed, but stressed frogs won't. The best is to discuss it with an experienced exotic vet.

    Adding some UVB such as a 5% bulb for a few hours daily might help (though I'm not aware of any studies to confirm this on pacman frogs) and feeding pink mice every 2 weeks dipped in calcium as a whole food source.
