He hasnt ate anything yet, and he gets scared everytime I take the top off the cage. Its been 4 days since I got him.

Is this all normal? Can they go a week or 2 without eating when they are a baby?
Hmm 10 is very large for a baby. If you can maintain 80 to 82 degrees and keep the humidity up it is possible to house a baby in a 10 gallon. The bad thing is that they need a lot of food and nutrition as babies and the more space there is the harder it is for them to catch food. It may be too much for him/her. I raised Grif since she was a baby about the size of a half dallor in a 10 gallon. I ran her food to her and she wasn't very frightened of me though.

It is normal for them not to eat when they are adjusting to a new home. Some will eat an hour after being placed in their new home and others will take upwards to a week. It all depends on the frog. You can try talking to your frog before removing the lid and after doing so. You may think this is silly or weird, but they are animals and can respond to sound. It takes time for them to not see you as a threat. When you feed him/her break the hind legs off the crickets. It makes them easier to catch.

Keep us posted on his/her progress.
