Suicidal White's TreeF.?

I have lots of froglets about 3 months since their morph.. How long do you think it would take, if they do have parasites, they would get to a critical load producing symptoms? I have not dewormed any of them, but all seem fine and are eating and acting fine..so far.
I only suggested intestinal parasite because I've been reading through the threads and it seems to be an reoccuring issue with new frogs, but I can't recall if all were froglets and or adults. Is it more likely to happen with new adults? Thanks for any info.

Captive bred or captive raised froglets rarely are seriously harmed by parasites. For one thing captive conditions are not usually conductive to developing a very heavy infestation, and for another thing frogs can usually handle even heavy infestations unless they become ill or heavily stressed out due to something else. There tends to be two major reasons why CB froglets die before adulthood. One, improper nutrition, and two contamination from housing them with sick WC frogs. Occasionally a frog will just morph weak and never do well or will develop some other type of problem but from what I have seen the majority of CB froglets that are lost were lost due to one of those two main reasons I mentioned.
