Hello, Iā€™m new to this website and not sure if I posted this under the wrong forum, I apologize if I did. Iā€™ve had these dwarf frogs for about a month and got them from a private fish store. Theyā€™ve been pretty healthy but yesterday I fed them their usually frozen blood worms & woke up to one of the frogs being extremely big. This is concerning to me & not sure if she is pregnant or just extremely bloated? I have another frog in the tank & it is completely fine and not bloated like the other frog. I do also have 3/4 month old baby mollies in the tank.

Frogs can't be pregnant, but they can lay eggs. If she is pregnant, then she will lay her eggs on the surface of the water. She does look bloated or filled with eggs, I can't tell you which because if they just eat blood worms, then yes she is fat. Cut back on the feeding for a few days and see if the belly shrinks.
