Deflated frog....HELP!
I have had my Budgett's frog for almost a week. Here is the back story about this guy if you have not seen my latest posts...http://www.frogforum.net/general-dis...bc-canada.html
A few days ago I got a 18"x18x18 exo terra for $50 off craigslist...last night "Bruce" moved into his large new home. By this morning my extremely inactive frog was moving around and actually tried to attack me through the glass! I was so pleased to see him moving and alert for the first time since I brought him home. I fed him 2 calcium coated crickets and went to work. When I returned he looked happy still...and about an hour later I looked at him and was shocked to see that he looks DEFLATED! This frog looks like a balloon that has lost its air. His skin is sagging and I can see where the jaw bones are. He also appears to have a large lump on his right side. My initial thought was that he had a big poop or something...but was not able to find one in the water. He is still active and alert...and again tried to attack me through the glass...but he looks so wrinkly! The first picture is of Bruce when I brought him home a week ago ...and the last 3 are what he looks like now....how does this happen in 1 hour!!!! Any idea what this could be?
