    Default New Behavior Not Seen Before

    Hi all,
    I happened to be up later than usual and noticed my girl gaping her mouth open off and on over a period of a few minutes. I've never seen this happen before and am wondering why she would be doing it?

    Hello and Welcome to Frog Forum! She's probably just shedding. Once or twice a month frogs will loosen up the top layer of their skin and force it into their mouth and eat it.

    Hello and welcome, and yes Eli was right that he/she was just shedding. Nothing to worry about. They do lots of weird things with there mouth and bodies while shedding.
