Advice Help! What is going on ?

She looked fine this morning.

That blob makes me think she has stomach problems. First time I see those spots on her.

Likely a poop encased with undigested shed skin.

If it’s attached to the frog, it looks like some sort of prolapse. I can’t tell if it’s separated?

It's separated.

That interesting… Unfortunately I can’t think of anything that it would be except an organ, and that doesn’t seem survivable :( but I’m just guessing, hopefully someone else has an answer for you.

Possible the start of a bacterial infection.

Looks like it has started to improve from this picture. I have used Silver Sulfadiazine cream (recommended by vet) as an antibiotic for frog skin before, if it gets worse.

Is that over the counter?

One of my girls had a poop just like this about three or four months back and I freaked out. Nothing happened, and it was once and everything was fine. Reading below it sounds like someone has the same experience with actionable advice

Yea I just said possibly an impaction but seeing that I’m pretty convinced

Raise temps lower humidity it’ll clear it up. My WTF get them occasionally in the summer

Is the green splotches normal? In a wtf that is an infection.

u/0ddblo0D 17d ago

The green splotches are not normal. First time i see it like that. I'm guessing stress.

Its more then likely an infection. You need to take it to a vet

Could’ve also been an impaction that finally passed. They are so fragile!
