Bloating Frog

[GrifTheGreat]

Hello

Noticeable fluid movement in the body cavity is not normal. Those are signs of edema. Your frog may be too cold since I doubt you keep your nice warm room at 80° F which he needs. Never purchase the animal before having the necessities to care for it. Inadequate climate can cause a lot of problems if not corrected quickly. Get the climate corrected and see if the fluid imbalance corrects itself.

As for feeding, it depends on whether you have a juvenile, subadult or adult. Babies and juveniles should be fed daily or every other day. Sub adults and adults only need to be fed two to three times per week depending on the size of each meal. They become much less active as adults and no longer need to eat as much because their growth has nearly ceased.

Best Regards

So, is Edema reversible?

[GrifTheGreat]

If caught in time yes.

I got a heater some days after creating this thread. Is there anything else I can do to reverse Edema?

[GrifTheGreat]

For now just correct the climate. Looking at the picture you've posted the frog does not look like it is in bad shape. Correcting the climate will help with normal metabolic functions and may correct the edema on its own. If it worsens then there may be a need to take other measures to help remove excess fluid.

I recommend also going to live bugs and small rodents once every great while as a diet. With bugs being the staple diet

Ok! Btw there are small white flies in the tank. Is there a way to get rid of it? I cant really clean the tank outside since it's cold, and the hose is not working
