New Pacman is puffed/bloated

[Sunshine]

Is there a possibility of taking him to a vet tomorrow? I wish I could be of more help but I dont know much about pacs or frog illnesses. He is a beautiful frog and I hope he pulls through!

I second this post.

It is most likely intestinal and you will need a Vet. He may be impacted and its to the point that it is causing an infection. Soft bliat is more treatable than hard bloat as hard bloat is usually afted the frog has become septic. I suggest a trip to tha Herp Vet. This may be safer than trying to treat him at home.

What was he housed on as substrate at the store?

EDIT; No I don't think its dropsy because dropsy is serous fluid buildup in little blisters or cysts usually around the abdominal region. Some affected areas can be quite large. Could be Edema, but I don't think so. It is definitely gas buildup probably due to an internal bacterial infection it a parasite like worms. You need a Vet. I wish there was more I could do.

Thank you for responding! He's still just as swollen today. I've tried to find a vet that will see him but no one around here does specialty plus they're closed for the weekend. It's so frustrating because I have an awesome vet back home in Georgia. Right now I'm in a rural part of Louisiana where I had to try 6 vets before I could find one to simply neuter my rabbit. Doing nothing means he'll more than likely die. I'm heading to a couple pet stores to see if I can get any answers. Maybe ithey at least know of a vet that will treat amphibians. I have to save him. Not only is he beautiful and has an awesome personality but he's a life. I feel like if I give him back (which the pet store will say since he has a 14 day guarantee) that he'll definitely die. Thanks again guys, I'll let you know how he does.

Grif, he was in coconut fiber. I've read that mealworms aren't good for them. Could that be it? I can't say for sure that he ate them since his tank didn't have any food in it but I did see mealworms in pretty much every tank they had.

That very well could be the problem if they Fed him primarily Superworms and Mealworms. They are high risk feeders for frogs and can cause an impaction because the chitin their exoskeleton is made from is not digestible.

he is a very beautiful froggy, and I'm sending healing vibes your way hoping you find a good vet and he gets better.
