No question is ever silly! Yes amphibians can get mites, harvest (trombiculid) mites are occassionally a problem on terrestrial amphibs. They can cause little reddish/bloody looking blisters on the skin. Ivermectin can be used to treat them. Hope that helps.

I really need some advice PLEASE....I got a giant waxy tree frog today, about 10 hours ago. I brought him home and set up his new home, and he has not moved since I put him in there. I am getting really worried about him, I was reading that they can get stressed from a move like this. Does anyone know for sure, and will he be ok? Should I just leave him alone for awhile an see what happens, I dont know what to do..........

I have a female Xenopus laevis. She's about 8 years old. A couple of times after changing the water she's spawned. Shortly afterwards she eats the spawn (so at least I don't have to clean it out). What's going on? Anyone else seen this?
