    Thanks, every1. But I couldn't stand by for more experienced peep to speek up, as critical time was being lost. I'm affraid Lucky wouldve been dead by morning. I'm still worried about the dark legs, but maybe this is the path the poison is taking to exit the body. Male sure to supliment calcium and vitamins, sometimes nutrition can help pull some out also. I'm still waiting on word of appitite, sometimes these kinds if things can cause kidney or liver damage, and intestinal problems. She may have the runs or get impacted.

    I've tried to read as much as I can because I live in an area like her, no vets at all. I'd have to drive 5 hours (one way) to Madison or millwaukee (6 h)

    Oh those pictures really paint in the details...D:

    I don't really have any advice for you other than what you've been given, which are all great recommendations. All I can do is hope for the best in this case. If the frog's skin is damaged it may impede it's ability to absorb moisture. I hope it heals soon. ><

    Update:
    Lucky has no appetite, I applied a thin coating of neosporin this morning, and Lucky is currently sitting in a pedialite bath. Lucky's coloring has not changed from that in the previously posted pictures.

    Ginger, you area lifesaver (literally!), thank you all for your support and advise.

    I will be contacting Dr. Frye tomorrow. There are what appear to be small chemical burns near the hind quarters (3 small sores).

    I still feel so terrible. I think I will keep Lucky out of the Viv/Terrarium until those sores heal.

    How would I supplement calcium/vitamins if Lucky isn't eating? Can a I make a dilution to spray her with?

    the pedialite is going to give her all she needs for now. I hope she's still active, and not sleeping in water all day. If she gets up to sleep and wakes up at normal time, this us a good sign. I don't know about putting vitamins in her water, she might have tummy trouble, and that would further irritate. Sometimes waxworms can entise a sick frog to eat. Any kind at Walmart or bait shop are fine. Hold them by the head and they'll swing around wildly. Once your frog becomes framiliar with them they will eat the slow moving worms without u piching.
    Good luck with dr frye, send him a picture in your email with all the details. I think of u both everyday, and thank you for the updates!!!!
