Sick African Clawed Frog
I have had two of them now for some time...2 1/2 years I think........ But anyways, I’ve noticed that one of them was getting skinny, he is about half the size "body weight" as the other one is, he still eats and appears to act pretty normally.... The are housed in a 20L that runs at room temps. Anybody have any idea’s or thoughts on what the problem could be or is? The frog web site that I use for information does not say anything in the treating Disease section for this type or issue.... Thanks for Your help :) |

he grabbed on it n all and hung on to it hanging out of it’s mouth for a few minutes, then let it go and that was the end of it, didn’t want anything to do with it...... No i have not seen that forum before, but Ii’ll be checking it out, Thanks |

Any ideas to try or suggestions won’t be of any use, I went up to my room tonight to check on the frog and feed the fish, and He was gone, He did try to eat though, He did have a worm half way out of his mouth, so my thery, the worm was dead or near dead and it didn’t have to do much to eat it and was weak enough that it couldn’t do the job and drown? After I pulled it from the tank i did pull the worm out and could see in it’s mouth and the partialy the throat and it didn’t look abnormal to me, so I’m still at a lose as what was going on with it.... I did forget, one of the two had a tumor on the under side of the chin last year, It had it for a good spell, then i happen to be looking at um one day and noticed it had shrunk by a bout 1/2, and it went away.. Not sure if this one was the one that had it or not, i’d have to look at them to see what one has the mark from it, but I do not think it was the one that died.. |
