well, I am pretty certain it is blind. One eye is completely flat and closed. The other eye is always open and is askew...cross eyed, i guess. But the frog doesn't respond to anything placed in front of his eye, not even light or dark. Yeah...I'm sure it won't end well, but I'll keep trying to get him to eat. I haven't been force feeding him, but I have been smashing up frog food pellets in water and having him swim in the water hoping that maybe some food/water will get in his mouth and he'll learn to eat like that. Does that seem like a good plan?
