Jo-Anna,

Awww....Little Gherkin. I do not own any African Bullfrogs but I would assume that after a state of hibernation they would be thinner because they have been feeding off of their body's fat stores.

I would offer him whatever he wishes to eat to beef him up again. Other members that own bullfrogs I'm sure can offer alot of advice.

Keep us up to date on how he is doing, and I'll follow on FB as well.

Take care, and I hope you get to feeling better from your cold.
