Sick red-eyed tree frog?

[Marilyn]

I would suggest the vet first. I have never heard of red-eyes basking, as they are an extremely nocturnal species.

It goes without saying that the vet is the BEST option. Most of us want to try something else first, which is why this forum is so helpful and useful. Many captive amphibians are not kept warm enough during the day--and, yes, the temp should be lower at night. Sick nocturnal frog species have been known to bask in the sun during the day. This induces fever which activates the immune response.
