Red Leg or normal coloration?

[saranita]

I admit, sconce my mothers pad man frog just died for what seems like no reason, I am a little paranoid about my two frogs at the moment. I have some pictures and I am wondering if someone can help me identify if they have red leg, if it is just their normal colour, or if it is formal redness that can be caused by them burrowing in drier areas of their enclosure? Any advice is helpful thanks!
The first two pictures are of my fantasy frog, and the other two are of a green pacman frog.

Its normal for them to have a little pink coloring on their thighs and lower belly.

Redleg is cause by overly dirty conditions and foul water. How often do you clean both enclosures?

Haha, I had a similar paranoia attack a few weeks ago

If I'm not mistaken, don't you usually see venation or evidence of burst vessels under the skin (blotches of darker red, not uniform) in cases of red leg? To me this looks healthy, but I want to emphasize that I know very little about this.

Yes, but it can also begin by looking pink then it turns red and you can see the blotches.

I clean everything every two months, but spot clean daily.

You need to clean everything no less than once a month.

Yes spot cleaning is good but doesnt help everything. I believe its the ammonia in a frogs urine that builds in the tank causing also sorts of problems. Never go over a month.

That's exactly right and if you notice how much water a Pacman can hold and release when they uriate you'll see first hand why it must be changed no less than once month. I swear my largest female can hold half a cup of water.

Oh wow, ok from now on I'll clean monthly so you think the redness in those pictures is normal?

The first one might have some irritation, but not Redleg in my opinion.
