Ok thank you! The humidity level is about 60% and the temp during the day is about 75 dropping to 65ish at night. And yes, I use purified bottled watter. I have been handling him every night to feed him. I will take Don's advice and start dusting the crickets with calcium and puting them in a glass bowl in my frogs tank. Thanks so much!

Is the water spring water? You want the minerals that comes in water for your frog so using tap with conditioner or spring is you best choices.
I think there is a good article on water in one of the threads that you way want to look for.
If i find it I'll post it here for you.

it is a safeway brand "purified drinking water enhanced with minerals for fresh taste". Is this ok or do you still recommend spring water?
thank you for the link!

Purified sounds like the minerals were removed so i would go with spring water which is usually available at a supermarket for about 50 cents a gallon.
I use tap water with a reptile safe water conditioner.

ok thank you!

I would take him to a vet asap, it can be a parasite and it maybe completely treatable!!! Good luck!
