    Update: Unfortunately, my frog died while at the vet office. He did some tests and said that my frog had 'Dropsy'. He told me there was nothing I could have done, but I still feel terrible.

    Sorry to hear about your frog. Make sure you are dusting your feeders with the proper vitamins and calcium.

    Oh, I'm sorry to hear about what happened to your frog...at least he's no longer in pain. You should clean out the tank he was in so the bacteria from his illness doesn't transfer to the other frog in the tank.

    I actually went out and got a new terrarium today, and will use the old one as a quarantine tank if I have another get sick. I also got some more plants to put in the terrarium, as my other seems to like them. It sucks that he got sick, but I'm going to do everything possible to keep my other healthy and happy. He's hopping around and eating good.

    well I'm glad u took him to the vet. Atleast u have answers. I'm going to have to read up on droppsy. I have no idea what is involved. I know it's painful, but if u can help others learn signs and symtoms, you'll become a valuable member of the forum.
    There's olny so much frog owners can do.
    Sorry for your loss, and I hope Kermit remains healthy
    Welcome to the forum, I wish there were other factors involved in joining.
