Last night I was enjoying the sound of my males whites tree frog song when he made a funny noise, I inspected him to find his li blow up chin didn't defalt [not even when I picked him up] it wasn't until I had held him for a minute that he decided tro pee on me and deflate it [He never pees on me!!] I looked him over for a close inspection and noticed a cvery near to clear ball sticking out of his butt it reminded me of the jelly around frogs eggs so I touched it to see if it would whipe off thinking he was jsut getting a lil to oeager hoping to try and get the female.. It was actualy his flesh sticking out!! his but was hanging out!! so Put him back down in his tank and watched him for a minute.. the ball went back inside him and there was no trace of it.. not even a whole.. thinking he was better I turned away.. he was climbing the glass when he let out hte broken chipr again and again I saw the ball.. he never chiprs on the glass.. He finaly made it back to his resting spot and sat there for the rest of the night [hes usualy up all night]
do I have cause to worry and if so is their anything I can do to make him better?

Thats no an option I'veh ad them for awhile and they've yet to mate, not to mention the femalewas on the otherside of the tank and no eggs are present thats why I seek help.

also for them to lay eggs they need to be cycled at cooler temps for 6 weeks i think it is, and be put through a rain cycle for so many hours for so long, they could have been mating though and the conditions just might not be suitable? when did you fisrt notice this?. Jeff

about a week ago, actualy I posted that the next morning. I dont believe them to be WC as the person I got them from had had them for a year I think and I've had em for about 6mnths.. I've yet to see them mate but hte male likesto sing to the music I play lol. the female just sorta sits around eating crickets..and considering she was on tjhe other side of the tank when he did this lil stunt....
