I also picked up some earthworms which are her favorite to encourage eating. She ate ravenously and even gave chase to the food, hopping around and such. I wish I had realized this earlier. She seems so much better. Problem solved and thank you everybody for your input!
That's how my tanks are set up. I didn't think to ask if you had the light centered. That's how you give them the proper temp gradient. The light being in the center warms the ambient air in the tank which also increases the temp on the warm side and the cool side will still remain cool. Humidity will still drop but the frog will be warm and won't dehydrate as long as you mist and keep the soil moist. I'm happy to hearall is well.
