What's wrong with him?! :(

[John]

The only thing I can think of is an ulcer but the color and morphology of it are wrong for ulceration in my experience. You've got me stumped and that's not easy to do. Hopefully someone else can help here. You did the right thing to separate it from the others. If it's eating healthily then just keep an eye on it until you get more feedback. If this is not the case, I would say it's vet time.

That looks terrible I hope you get some help soon. I am clueless.

Thank you so much for your advice! Yeah, I have absolutely no idea what this could be. What I did do, though, is because this is so hard to see with the naked eye (it just looks like a wet spot on his head) and maybe I just haven't noticed it, I went through some pictures I took last month to see if I could notice something I may have missed. In one picture of him, I think I do see the start of something? It's a little bit on his left side of his head. I circled it, but honestly, it might be hard to see. This picture was taken on July 4th, so over a month ago. I'm not sure if this information helps anything, but it might be important that it looks like it's been going on for a while. Poor guy. I feel awful that I didn't even notice.



Thank you again so much for any ideas!

That might help a vet diagnose the problem but you will almost certainly have to take the frog to the vet to get it.

Alright, thanks! I just called my vet's office and they said they're not sure that the exotics vet can see a FBT. They told me to call back Saturday morning when she's in, and if she can see him, to make an appointment then. So, I'm going to keep an eye on him and then call them Saturday morning. Luckily, I don't think it's an emergency if it's been going on this long, so I think waiting 2 days will be ok. But if they can't see him, I'm going to have to take him somewhere else. But I really hope they can, I really like my vet's office, and I know they'd do their best to figure out what's wrong.

Thanks guys! I'll keep you updated!

Poor guy - that's an odd looking ailment, almost looks like a blister ... i hope your vet can see him and figure out what is wrong, keep us updated!

Good luck with the little guy--let us know how it goes.

Sorry I didn't update sooner but it's been a crazy busy day. I called this morning and they can see him, and I have an appointment for him in the morning. I'll let you know how it goes!
