Sick Whites Tree Frog

[Leefrogs]

Ok I didn't read that on this site, u are going to have to google it. It couldve been a like 10 seconds, I don't remember. I'm sorry. And it may have also said u have to give them a pedialite bath (mixed 10pt water 1 ped, at 70-80 degrees) after to stabalize everyhting that was stripped out of the frog.

Thank You both!

I have pulled the frog and put it in a Kritter Keeper (I honestly don't know if it's a him or a her). I bathed it in distilled water and now it's sitting in honey water.

I will run out here in a bit to get some pedialite. I feel so terrible about this.

I will take some pictures a little later.

I truly hope that your frog recovers, please keep us updated. Praying for the little guy/gal!

Frog update:

Marked improvements!

With the honey-water it began "perking" up and regained green colors in it's back (still dark brown with white small pockets of the milky white substance).

It's been sitting in the pedialite bath for 10 minutes and the rest of it's body is beginning to turn green and it's literally bouncing of the walls of the Kritter Keeper.

Thank You so much!

I will take pictures tomorrow!

I am very glad to hear that the frog is doing better!

I'm glad there is improvement. I'm not sure if the keeper is nessieary, since u know its exposure to hand sanitizer and not a comunicable disease. Watch for stages of infection, and separate at that juncture. Foggy eyes, swollen legs or throat, lethargy, and not eating. Those blisters are probably going to break open at some point, I would only neosporin after they abcess. If they stay like closed, I'd leave it. I'd still soak her daily, the honey bath, if infection has started but not abcess, u could try a green tea bath( caffiene free) it has antibacterial properties. you can ward off fungal infection by keeping cage a Lil drier, 50% humidity maybe, and change your substrate, keep it as clean as u can. Hopefully there won't be complications,

Since u have no vet availinle try contanting dr frye, I know he does fecals and meds through the mail. See if he will get u some anibiotics, if not theres the suggestion kurt had on first aide to left.
