Nikki I just finished looking at your pictures and I have to to say that scab does look bad. I would treat it with just a little neosporin for a couple days and see if that helps it heal and get rid of bacteria. Hopefully by now you've lowered humidity. Unfortunately you cannot always trust the people in the pet stores, they may look intelligent and speak nice but 9 times out of 10 they have no idea what they're talking about. The people in my local pet store keep large turtles in cages that are small to the point where the turtle can't even turn around, this is just one example of the cruelty they're capable of.

If you've lowered humidity I'd say your next step is grabbing some plants like Cheri has suggested. These will make him feel safer and more secure, since he is wild caught, this will probably calm him down significantly. Another thing you can do is tape pieces of paper to the outside sides of the tank to keep him from seeing out for the first few weeks. This will reduce stress substantially. I have done this will all my frogs but the very first one, Ginger here gave me the idea after I had already had my first frog for a while. So far it has worked to great success, it makes the frogs feel safer and keeps you from spying on them all the time, which trust me is fun, but it can lead more stress can lead to serious health problems. Fake plants are fine, just make sure they're big enough that he can stand on them without tipping them over, Exo Terra makes good ones. I use a fake Exo Terra fern in my ten gallon for my baby WTF and he seems to enjoy it. Also maybe some more hanging plants will help him to feel safer as well. Just provide more places for him to hide and he should stop trying to escape.

I'm sure if you posted a picture of the poop no one would get grossed out, but unless the signs of parasites or other illnesses are obvious, I don't think we'll be able to tell much from a picture.

Hey well I went the petsmart and bought a bag of pothos (fake) and wrapped it around the lil climbing trunk I gotta say there is a lot more space for him to hide now I'm not sure If I'll ever see him lol...it looks full now Like an actual rain forest ..I bought the neosporin without pain relief and put some on his nose ...when I tried to pick him up to put him elsewhere while I clean the tank he started jumping everywhere and once I grabbed him he peed on my ( what does that mean when they pee on you) I washed my hands afterwards of course but just curious...thanks for all the help you guys I really appreciate it..I will post pics soon I'm mobile right now cuz my internet is down but I will soon and you guys can tell me what you think....once again thanx

The urinating is a fear response. My White's used to do it all the time when I would pick him up to move stuff around in his tank or bring him to the vet. Once they get used to you they should stop doing that when you have to pick them up. Do you have a critter keeper for him? I would buy one of those and put him in it when you're cleaning his tank or treating his nose. You can cover the sides with paper towels while he's in there so you don't scare him. My White's would let me cover him with a piece of the paper towel and go to sleep there during car rides, it makes them feel safer.

If the noserub doesn't go away within a week or less I would stop treating him with the neosporin and look up a vet in your area. Also take a good look at his eyes when you bring him out, if you see any cloudiness this could be a sign of infection. You're doing good so far, it's good if you don't see him for the first few weeks while he gets used to you. Hopefully he'll stop trying to escape and give you an indication that he feels safe with you.

Yeah I have a small tank for him to put him in while I clean...his eyes are fine big bright red eyes ....no cloudiness....I just found out that my red eye is farm raised what does that mean ...they told me it was cb....I can't believe they lied....what does farm raised mean

Unfortunately I am pretty new to the hobby as well and am not sure about ALL the terminology yet, so I don't know what Farm Raised could mean. I'm sorry to hear that you have to deal with this sort of service. It's never fun to be jerked around.

That's good that there is no cloudiness. Just try to leave him alone until it's time to apply the medicine, give him a quick once over and put him back in the tank as quickly as possible. try to do this at night after he wakes up on his own, you shouldn't be waking him up forcefully, especially during the day.

hey well i came home from work and he is still in the same spot he was when i found him this morning sleeping i just turned off the light and covered the whole tank but not the doors...i just put his medicine on his nose ...i hope he gets better...im really worried..i have a question why do they stick only there butt in the water when in the bowl its like there just chillin outside the dish but only the lower part of his body is in the water?...

[Kisa]

The butt in the water bowl could potentially mean something, but I wouldn't worry about that just yet. I have seen my frogs do this, I think they're sitting in the water while still keeping their eyes open for potential dangers. The walls of their water dishes could impede their vision, this just may be a way of getting around that. Other then that brief blurb, I really have nothing.

You're doing well, try not to stress about it too much. Keep up what you're doing for a little while longer and keep applying the medicine and giving him check ups.

Did you manage to get the humidity down?
