John has a good point. My fantacy frog has a picky appotite, so he is smaller fron the the ornate and cranwell,that was raised together at the same size. Some times he wouldnt eat for weeks.

Thanks for all of your replies. He could be stunted. I couldnt get him to eat for the first week i had him. Then sparingly after the first feed. I have another frog thats doing great!
Oh well. I guess this will be the cheapest frog ever to feed![]()
ive seen a few males in my day under 3 inches full grown. Growth Stunt happens to frogs for sure.
he looks stunted.
have you tried other types of food... like "other" frogs or feeder goldfish? i noticed mine had boosted its growth with those. i used to feed mine about 10 small frogs in one session. after a couple of weeks, i noticed he can go for double.
mine seems to challenge me if i could keep up with his feeding requirements.
might work for your frog.
Feeder goldfish aren't a good dietary source of nutrition, they often carry parasites and have been known to cause kidney/liver problems in frogs. Other feeder fish like guppies , minnows, and shiners would be a good substitute as long as they're captive bred. I would stay away from feeder fish though.
