Hey My largest white's tree frog has been looking rather odd the past couple days he has been holding air in his neck and it looks weird. Could this be a sign of some health prob or does he just want to buff his neck out for some reason

the only thing I can think of with bloating is some species will puff themselves and act wierd when they are getting ready to shed.

Blaoting occurs in frogs when they do shed along side with opening mouths in a yawnin' matter and literally tearing the skin off their bodies. Check the frogs mouth. Tree Frogs tend to lunge themselves onto their food, maybe a chunk of substrate is bothering her?

Update me please.

I think It was just cause he was sitting in a tube that kinda pushed his sides of his belly in so the area the belly would have taken up had to go somewhere I totaly know what you mean but the sheeding thing though here are some pics I took fo rmy frogs sheeding its SO funny looking
