Like any small animal, baby frogs know that if it casts a shadow over you, it's probably going to eat you!!
Be a Ninja Frog-Keeper...........do as much as you can, as sly as possible. Try not to cast a shadow over him while misting.cover 3 sides with dark paper or background and let the frog see you moving around in the room.......let him get used to you being out there. But like I said, when working in it's cage, try your best not to cast shadows.

Hope this helps!
Wel what im doing is leading the cricket to him with my hand, it walks by him than i pick it up and do it again. After about 3 times, i take it out and try again that night. I do it once in the afternoon and once at night. Im hoping one day he will eat one, than be good from there.
Is this a good idea? It will give him a chance to get used to me as well, since my hand will always be in there.

The shadow thing makes sense, because in his little cage everytime i put the lid on he would freak out. Thanks for that, i didnt know why he was freaking out XD.



Thanks for the advice! I will try the worms if this doesnt work, but how would you force feed a frog? How long can he go without eating? Hes still as small as in that picture, hes a little baby.
