I've had Todda for 3 years now. I am almost positive that she's a bullfrog. She has not eaten for several months now. It's cold where I live. When she wasn't eating, I thought that it was b/c she was hibernating,until she started to lose weight. Then I got scared, so a few days ago I changed her tank set-up to fully water wtih an underwater heater set to 79 degrees. Still no eating.... Yesterday I bought a UVB light for her (2 percent which it says is recommended for frogs) and still...no eating.
As my last resort, I just started to force feed her. Since she's not eating I mixed into a paste Herptivit and Rep Cal.
In addition, I have not seen her feces for months. If she has something enlarged in her intestines, how long could she live with it there?
Also, she can no longer use her legs on land. One time she was trying to hide in her soil and b/c of her legs, she rolled on her side and just laid there b/c she couldn't get up. Her ankle on one leg is twisted and her other leg is messed up also. Her spine also appears to be curved alittle.

Someone PLEASE HELP ME IMMEDIATELY....
