amalie Posted May 5, 2011 Report Share Posted May 5, 2011 I have a young whistler who has his back legs outstretched. He was fine this morning but this evening when I had a peek at the frogs he was lying on the bottom of the terrarium with his backlegs stretched out. I've made sure he was well hydrated and popped him in a small container to feed (although his belly was quite full) he has been interested in the fruit flies but hasn't had more than one or two, he is now moving well, even climbing up walls with just his front legs. I haven't seen this before except in a frog i kept as a child - after it jumped into hot soap dishwater (it survived). What causes it and what can I do? Other than the back legs he seems quite normal. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Insect Direct Posted May 5, 2011 Report Share Posted May 5, 2011 ive seen that once after one frog tried to eat another and failed. maybe just keep it in a small plastic tank on its own for a few days and see how it goes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
amalie Posted May 5, 2011 Author Report Share Posted May 5, 2011 Did your one come right? Mine is absolutely fine still - barr his back legs! I'm wondering if it may be an injury? Although there's nothing at all in the terrarium that I could think might cause one. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
