    Try posting a video of the behavior when the frog eats. Specifically how the frog moves it's leg. It's the hind leg correct?

    The frog has not accidentally ingested one of the plant leaves has it?

    No, not that I know of.But as I was typing this I walked over and saw him pooing, and he had both of his legs fully stretched out. At first I thought he was dead and saw that he was just using the restroom. I caught a photo right after he readjusted himselfName:  20190904_191610.jpg

    I cannot tell whether there is anything wrong with your Fantasy frog. The posture does look odd but cleaning the frog off and posting a picture of the area and a video of how the frog moves and it's general behavior that is making you think something is wrong would be helpful.

    Understand, I will get the feeding video later on In the evening as not to disturb his feeding cycle, but I will wash him and let him sit in the bath and see if he displays any movement. As he does that I'll get a picture of his enclosure

    Could be due to calcium deficiency during early development, but I cannot tell. The picture is very blurry, but the leg should be tucked in under the frog rather than extended.

    I also got the ID wrong. That's a C. Cranwelli not a Fantasy Frog. Looked a bit like a Fantasy in the first picture. Anyway the body appears underdeveloped compared to the size of the frog's head as well.

    I didnt quite understand what was meant to be caught on camera, so I cleaned him off in a baby bath temp soak, toom a picture of the enclosure and a 1 Minute video of his twitches in the bath.Name:  20190904_222548.jpg

    This is him attempting to crawl back into his after I set him back in his tank. He sorta just slipped and jostled around untill he got comfy
