Whites shedding problem??? plz help

[Leefrogs]

oh it does look better. more identifiable, like scab instead of a hole. Good to hear. I'd jam that spot with moss or something. Mine had spots like dons pic, jamming themselves between corner of terrarium and big bamboo, so I had moved it farther away, and haven't seen it since. Like marks when u cross your legs for a while, but frog colored, LOL. I read somewhere they feel temp with bellies not their backs, so that explains why he didn't move soon enough. I hope u get a friend for him and all goes well. Thank u for posting and sharring, I'm also currious on size and known age of yr frog, mine are 21/2 and 3, Petco didn't know how old they were. I don't know when to cut back on calcium and feedings. Thanks in advance

Yes, that does look so much better.... I'll post a pic to show you why I think mine was more a burn or irritation...
Also, I don't ave any mold that I see in my substrate so not sure how it gets started,

My Whites like to sleep on the electrical outlet and the littlest one has his head right at the ceramic socket for the bulb... I had to move that but and make this socket not used.

Ginger&Lee, my frogs about 3 in. SV. I got him a year ago at petsmart and he was a shade under 2 in. I have no idea the age but i'm guessing he's about 2 yrs old, maybe less (i dunno how fast they grow in the first yr, i've seen some tiny ones at petsmart/petco).Since he's a male (he calls) I'm guessing he's about finished growing. I also read that blue phase whites (the australian sub species) is generally smaller than the indo's. As for feedings, it depends on the size of crickets that are available at the local pet store. For a while now they are fairly small (which isn't bad because the younger crickets have softer bodies, less hard chitin and wings). He'll eat around 4-6 every other day or so. I don't have a rigid feeding regimen really, i mean in the wild i'm sure hunting is hit or miss. I calcium feed once a week. I coat 3 crickets and hand feed as i have moss in the tank and moss is very sensitive to calcium. Recently i fed waxworms as i felt his tympanic ridges weren't robust enough, so he added some weight a bit.

Oh and Don, thats good news. I think in both our cases that the wounds are mechanical and not disease related, which is certainly a relief

My little guy shed the skin on the new mark and it doesn't look swollen. Looks like it will clear up pretty quickly.
I put in a larger water bowl today hoping the larger frogs don't pack in with the small one in his little cup. Some reason they will try to pack up to three of them in the cup and forget the water dish.
Amazing how big there Whites can get... local place had one that was 4 times the size of mine and super fat. He was s cool.
