Here is one thing you can do to make sure he is still eating. When its time to feed him dig up only his head to where he opens his eyes and can see. Drop in the crickets and see if he decides to climb out and have some dinner. It's not usually a problem when they completely bury themselves. They all do it. Grif just did yesterday and today he has his head above the soil. Post back and let us know if he responds to the food tonight. He may also have been stressed a little from switching enclosures.

    I would give him 1 a month and no more than 1 every 3 weeks. I was giving my C. Cranwelli Grif 2 a week to help him gain weight, but he was sick for 3 months and I had to force feed him to help him recover because he stopped eating on his own. I did it for 4 weeks. I would feed your guy more than 1 a month if he's healthy and is at a healthy weight.

    Glad it's adjusting to new setup nicely. Some frogs seem to prefer smaller spaces and vice versa.

    As for feeding pinkies, your frog will be just fine without but if you do decide to use them go with once a month.
