From what you explained, it doesn't sound like you did anything wrong.

I'd say it isn't likely that the frog could have drowned in its water bowl. In 1/4 inch of water or even 2 or 3 inches of water, the frog should have been strong enough to float and get out.

It sounds like the effects of the heat may have simply been delayed in the second frog. That or there may have been prior issues in one or both frogs.

Again i really don't think you made any mistakes here. Any frog that is delivered healthy to your home should be more than able to survive in that much water

i would definitely contact the seller and inform them of the situation because assuming it wasn't the heat then the problem is definitely on their end.

When you're looking for a new milk frog(s), Josh's Frogs consistently delivers well established quality animals. They don't have any in stock right now but they usually have more babies coming of age in early fall, if you're willing to wait. It will also give an opportunity for you to establish your self sufficient enclosure (plants can grow, springtails and isopods can get established, etc)

I honestly think it was due to my accident. I really appreciate your kind words. I'm so freaking stoked to have frogs around again and this was such a blow. I actually do feel a strong sorrow that changed some things for me that really are positive.
Mercury retrograde started 8/5. I bought my terrarium 8/5. As some 'pointers' for retrograde, "don't sign anything, dont't start anything". I also had my soils and my foundation package for the terrarium get complete delayed. Was supposed to get the soils and other stuff Friday when the frogs arrived and they won't be here for another week due to some error that I've never had happen before in shipping. stuffs happening eh!?
