Maybe if you try to align the limb, then allow it to sit in the usual "crouch" position that Tree Frogs favour and place it gently a box of damp leaf litter compost (definitely not sawdust), and throw in a few earthworms, cockroaches, mealworms or whatever the patient is likely to eat – then keep the litter moist and add more live worms etc for a couple of weeks, the bone may have a chance to knit – if the … The frog will need water to swim & stay moist and a dry area to get onto. It has temporary shaded places and hiding spots etc. When a second red admiral came my way a bit windblown I fed it outdoors and put it on high up flowers once the weather calm, prayed to God, sent healing thoughts and hoped. Idk maybe someone could snap its leg into place and you could nurse it back to help. I feel responsible since i found him in my garden. My advice would be to let it go at a pond and let God figure out what to do with him. and unfortunately we cant afford to take him to the vets because im guessing it would cost loads and i dont want him to just die. You call up an animal hospital to get help. It didnt have much of a problem with me touching it so I think it either was someone's pet (someone's been letting loose a lot of their pets lately...including a huge fricken snake that almost bit me near the creek) or it's really injured like it was hit by a car or something. or really bad news. Better that, I'd have thought, than laying around with a busted leg, waiting for a magpie or two co come along and start hacking him to pieces? He'll feel a lot more secure, and this will greatly help his situation :). This animal isn't going to surivive, not even a vet could help him. Well, you have two options. Unfortunately, crickets probably wouldn't be a great idea, considering his broken leg. I think one of its back legs is broken. I'm worried about having the water too deep though because his leg is hurt and I don't think he can swim properly if he gets in. I know of facilities that take in a few frogs each year, so it may have a chance, but I don't know how you'd deal with a break in that kind of animal unfortunately. But, sounds like you're along the same mindset as I am (and others who have posted) and kinda feel like if we as humans are capable of helping out creatures without the abilities we have? Leave him outside, some predator will find him tonight and give him a quick death. I think he might have some cuts and scrapes on his stomach. I told him the frog had a boo boo, so he put the frog back in the water. I can't drive yet and 3. my parents would get pissed at me if they found out I was going all "treehugger" again. Would you rather have a pet dog or pet frog? So speaking from experience, there's really nothing you can do for it. But, just so's ye know; If ye put it inside a plastic bag and pop that into ye freezer, he'll simply lower his own metabolic rate ~ thinking it's time to hibernate ~ and will go to sleep. Is this a tortoise or a turtle? Anyway yeah, my question is how should I be setting up the tank for it and how can I help its leg heal? Aww poor froggy. You could try to care for him yourself, but it would only prolong his suffering. and I don't really want to go to a pet store to buy crickets because 1. He will probably need to maintain a temp of at least 80-85. I'm pretty sure she'd be able to live normally even if the break healed in a slightly off position. anyway i was just wondering if there is any way i can help him? I'm not sure what species he is (again, I know nothing about frogs) but he's dark greyish brown with a light green underside.
i asked a question a few hours ago asking if frogs just lay in the same position for an hour or if there was something wrong with it because there was a frog just sitting there. Also go ahead and mist the tank a couple of times a day with a little spray bottle full of water.

but will he last the night without a heater?
You can either contact a wildlife rehabilitation center or your local vet to see if they cant take it or know of another facility that can. Or two; nurse the frog and book him a vet's appointment! He did last the night so I'm pretty sure it's a wild frog which would mean cooler temperatures should be fine (again, we live up north) and I'm also pretty sure that it's an aquatic frog. and I will put a towel in there, thanks =].

It will need a heat lamp and food (meely worms & crickets - at the very least). It's sad but it's the circle of life. Anyway, short of straightening out the leg and strapping it with a twig so it can't move and then nursing it 'til it gets better, there's nothing you can do. But if she's not eating anything there might not be time for it to heal.
I know you don't want to, but if there is any way you can go to a pet store and purchase some flightless fruit flies, or waxworms, it would help tremendously! So I'd probably just let it work out on it's own. Get your answers by asking now. I was walking down the street earlier and almost stepped on a frog that was lying close to the side of the road. You may want to confine him to a smaller breeder box that floats inside the tank to prevent him from using it too much but all you can do is wait and see. Scratch that, I don't know anything about frogs...it wouldn't eat a worm when offered but I left it in there just in case.
She (yeah, I found out it's a girl XD) has been sitting in the same place in the water all night. I'd like to keep her here until I'm sure her leg is healed but if she's refusing to eat while in captivity should I just let her go now? sorry to have to say it. there isnt much you can do for it besides doing what you are doing.

I can't think of any way to keep him warm :( and also is hydrogen peroxide okay to use for a frog? I once found a butterfly, red admiral, with a deformed much shorter wing to the other and fed it successfully for a while on raspberries, had it in a tank with flowers etc but his wonderful colours faded and I realised my nature friend needed to be back in it for better or worse and let him finish his life in the sun on open flowers, cried shamelessly about leaving him but taught me a great lesson.
Lastly, make sure he's in a room where the temperature isn't too cold! By tomorrow he won't be waking up again. Preferably something thats more on land.? i know its the kindest thing to do but i just cant, thanks for all your help but i've got good news! Edit: You don't need to use a heat lamp.

Which of these two animals would you have as a pet. I keep thinking she's dead. if he lasts for the night Id be suprised, but if he does he probably will make it. And what kind of tortoise/turtle is it?
I don't think he's been swimming in it much. 1st of all, good for you! However, I would probably line the bottom of the tank with damp paper towels, and keep the accessories to a bare minimum; no branches or anything that it would try to climb. How did you make out?

A desk lamp would work just as well. Provide a very shallow dish filled with distilled or conditioned water so that he will be able to drink and soak. He is not your responsibility. I got the frog, and started examining it. You could be denying a hungry raccoon his dinner. I had same experience today I lifted him thinking To put him beneath a hedge as ai didn t want a car to do more, he was on his back, as soon as I went to pick him up he turned over very much alive and very calm and placid on my hand, I had a vet nearby so took him there, at first they thought they may need to euthanase him but thankfully the main vet has a pond at home and said he would take him, that frogs have good healing ability. Well, It's a frog so I'm sure it'll work out on its own.
