Hello,
I am a new member, and unfortunately already have some issues with my baby whites tree frog. I got him March 15 from Petsmart, the guy at the store told me he has not been growing much compared to others, but I took him anyway. He has been eating just fine up until 2 weeks or so ago. I fed him crickets, butterworms, wax worms and some wild moth, like carpenter moth I got with my Zoo Med Napper. I have another frog same age, in separate enclosure who has been getting same things and he is just fine.
So about 2 weeks ago he started to shed and stopped eating completely. He looks fine and active, and two days ago tried to get a cricket but was too clumsy. But he refuses to eat from tongs (which he did before by the way) and i general has not been eating.
I soak him 2x a day in pedialite and honey for 15 minutes and finally took him to the vet today. She told me that she could not see anything wrong with him, he weights 6 grams, looks good, no evidence of any fungus, red leg, etc, his bones feel fine and in general he looks good but with empty belly which is expected. She suspected parasites and gave me ivermecin and panacur, but she sounded like she really has no clue what is going on.
What can I do to make him eat and what could be wrong with him?
I keep temp 80 and humidity 50+.
