    Pet Shop Horror!!! (DU warning)

    Just seen this guy in a petshop. The petshop was going to throw him out because they said he was dead, or on the verge of death. I seen some movement, so I had asked if I could take it. They looked at me a bit funny, but forget them. Anyways Lil guys doing much better. All that was needed was some actual knowledge and proper care on these awesome frogs.....not just sticking them in a tank full of dried sphagnum with a few dozen crickets...*coughs* petshop *coughs*...This guy was rock hard...almost dried to death by these morons.....sorry for my rantings and heres some pics of the whole cleaning him up/hydrating him and getting him in his cage process....

    Sorry to hear that. At least you made his last days better than what the petshop would have.
