Make sure he eats it and give him a few of the feeders as much as he will eat and then wait and see how he does the next two days then get a calcium without D3 and cover the insect in it and feed it to the frog like you did with the vitamin. The Zoo Med products can be found at many pet stores and work for me.

    Thanks so much for the input. I did find two products that I started using: Fluker's Repta Calcium (with D3) and Fluker's Liquid Calcium. We have been using them for a few days. My frog seems to have more bearing, he has at least been able to tuck his legs beneath him, and pivot. Before when I created this post, his legs were sprawled out behind him, and he wasn't even moving them back. I put the crickets food source near him, so the crickets are close enough for him to eat. I am pretty sure he has eaten a few. Also, since he can't make it to water, I spray him. He does seem better than when I made the first post. When I made the first post, I was worried he wouldn't make it through the night. I am happy that he has made it through the week, and appears to be stronger. I am happy to nurse him, and do whatever it takes to have him survive, but I worry that he's in a lot of pain, discomfort, and suffering. He has not passed any food in at least a week, unless it's beneath him, since hes been in the same spot. I am afraid to move him because he seems so fragile.
