Well I have been away from the board for a week or so because I've been in the process of a big move. I got all my frogs moved in just fine. (not my first frog move) Then, this morning I found my nicest female "no dot" citronella laying dead in her usual shedding spot with a lonely male roaming the tank. Her eating habbits were normal, she resumed eating as soon as I fed her when she was moved in. I moved all frogs in their tanks to minimize stress. I've had this happy pair for over 3 years. I raised them from froglets. The only thing I can truly think of is maybe she became egg bound from holding eggs.
I cut back on feeding and misting a little before the move to "season" them out of breeding. She laid clutches of at least 9-11 eggs at a time when she was breeding! Then when they got settled in I resumed feeding heavily and misting twice a day. They have been housed in the same 55 gallon viv since they were juveniles. This was a great loss, as she was one of my favorites! So needless to say I will be posting in the wanted section for a female citronella momentarily.
