I went outside see my frogs and to my horror i see that my 3cm long gillens tree frog has eaten some fake duck weed its about 3cm long as well and stuck inside half way in side him and i cant pull it out he looks to be in lots of pain what do i do:( ill post a pic if i can find out how to
 
continue to try adn ease it out slowly , frogs have a good habiot of swallowing things !!! just be patient and in the meantime try adn call a vet specilised in reptiels or amphibians
 
The duckweed is from reptile one and its has sharp edges i realy think hes not going to make it:( i wasent even able to find a bird specialist last time and its pased 5pm here so if anyone has the number of any good vet open now please help and i want to insert an image but i dont know what the URL of my image is?

frogs can sometimes turn their stomachs inside out I heard once, to get rid of whatever is upsetting them, is there a chance he may be able to do that??
 
that doesnt sound good!,. hope he is ok!

Great looking frog.. id love to have a pet frog but sorry i dont have one so i wont be much use to you :(
 
Slowly pull the clove out very slowly put a latex globenon so you dot burn the frog skin with exsessive handling it will come up just keep manuvouring the clove ! Just be firm with it frogs heal up pretty well
 
I can't pull it out i'v tryed at one point the frog was hanging of the weed with it's mouth wide open wriggling i held it like that for 5 seconds but it won't come out if you look at the pic the weed is curved and is like a hook i don't know what to do
 
sorry to hear your bad news, it is a good looking frog, hope all goes well
 
duck weed is out and my frog is greener than ever:D thanks for all the help everyone and all that fake duck weed is in the bin and i DON'T reocomend it but i would like to know were i can get some real duckweed and maybe some over good frog plants:)
