Yesterday when i was going to feed my jfbn i found her floting and looking bloated.
At feeding this monday she looked fine and was behaving as usual, hungry and acitve.
I put her in an other tank with shallow water and plants and her floting cork so it would be easier to move around.
At first i think only the belly had the swolliness but now the neck is swollen to.
Haven't changed anything in the ordinary tank and everything seemed fine until yesterday.
She is quite old though, atleast 14 probably older.
There is no vet within 300km with any experience of amphibians.

I don't know what to do!

Is there Anything i can do??
or should we put her to sleep? i don't want her to suffer and have a long and painfull dying.

i've read the article about bloat but i did not find much help there

Sorry for my bad english, I am to devastated to write good.
