I did not know that they will eat that many crickets, I only feed him around 10. That may be the problem. I actually only have the multivitamin, I need to pick up more d3. Ok sounds good, thank you all for your help
    Great! Dubia roaches are an excellent source of diet for your frog. It takes about 3-4 months for your colony to be well established before you should pick out of it unless you want to buy more for the ones that are taken out by you. Yeah it's not like I just throw in an exact amount of crickets for him in a 15 minute feeding time, I just throw a bunch in there and whatever he doesn't eat, he doesn't eat. Based on the amount of crickets I told you is how much mine usually eats in a 15 minute feeding time and also that he is close to your pixies size. If the multivitamin doesn't already have calcium and d3 in it, you'll need to pick up a supplement with calcium + d3. If your multivitamin already has d3, then just a calcium supplement, and so forth.. You get the point. They don't need a whole lot of d3, but it helps them absorb the calcium in take for their growing bones. Obviously the multivitamin offered once a week is very beneficial for their health. 2:1 Calcium-Phosphorus ratio found in calcium supplements is good. Np man, if you need anything else... Let me know.

    If you don't mind me asking, how much were the 210 mixed roaches on theroachguy?

    Pictures are always fun. Hopefully he isn't infected or anything.

    one tip would be not to leave any un-eaten crickets with your frog. They will chew on him. I lost a bearded dragon once to crickets, they ate his eyes out...

    someone more knowledgeable will step in and tell you about the infections these guys can get, and hopefully treat.
