No leg control, legs splayed out like that, bloating, 3 week duration. Your frog is not long for this world. It could be a number of things like insuffcient calcium supplements, but more more likely it’s a massive bacterial infection brought on by toxic overload and a infrequent tank cleaning. How long have you owned this frog. Do you have others that are also displaying similar symptoms? You really needed to get help for him weeks ago. I can suggest baytril as an antibiotic to fight a bacterial infection, but your frog is likely in the final stages of his life.
I can only help you prevent this from happening again or if you have other FBT’s how to treat them to keep them from dying too.
