    I wonder if he was suffering from MBD before you got him and so you're still seeing the effects. Are you using UVB lighting? If you are, are you using a coil style? I heard the coil style can be damaging and/or irritating to tortoise eyes and wonder if it would have similar effect on frogs. I switched to the tube style for our tortoise once I read that. I'm not sure if they would have a low uvb version for tree frogs though.

    If you're not using UVB, maybe try switching up the supplements a bit. I use a vitamin (reptivite) twice a week and a calcium +D (repcal + D) three to four times a week.

    Otherwise, I would say that he's probably just a clumsy guy. Is this the one you had to treat for parasites? Perhaps that affected him in some way.
