Anyone have a pic or 2 or a Dart Frog that is sitting and it looks like it's hips are broken and it looks like is body is lying flat with it's legs 'above' the body ? Does that make sense ?

It's a calcium deficiency, I'm fairly sure and I'm seeing a few pics of these frogs. I never had such a frog with a defect like that, so no pics on my end.

Does anyone have a pic that they can post here for future reference ?
Found one pic....

metabolic bone disease. Lack of calcium
Although that frog is WC...
