Sick tomato frog, please help

I echo John's advice. Sounds like either a baterial or fungal skin infection, either way, it needs to see a vet.

Tomato forgs secrete this very sticky substance when they are under extreme stress.
Wether while be eaten by a larger animal, or , any other example of stress including
environmental, or pathogenic. The exudation should be cleaned away from the frog as it may contribute to skin erosion.Sorry I did not see this earlier, but there is something very wrong when this " defensive behaviour" occurs.

thanks to everyone who chipped in with their views on my poor frog. he is now in fine health! i thought you like to no. he is now the happiest, friendliest and definately greediest of all my tomatoes! i must also make special thanks to paul rust as without the frog first aid thread i dont think chilli would have pulled through. keep up the good work, all of you!
p.s anyone that has not read the frog first aid, i would higly reccomend it. in fact do it NOW! knowledge saves frog lives

That's great to hear! Hope he grows old! I was actually just skimming through old Tomato Frog posts today, and read this one. Why not post some photos?
