That would be awesome man. Thank you. I'm honestly getting tired of crickets anyway. Also I don't know about the pinky. He's not a baby but not full grown either. Here's a few pictures.

I can't really tell how big your frog is, but 1-day old pinkies are incredibly small. Sometimes you can buy a pregnant female and wait for her to give birth. Sometimes you can just get lucky and buy 1-day olds, but you almost always have to ask for them.
I'd be happy to send you enough lobster roaches (Nauphoeta cinerea) to start a colony. If I were you I would google how to culture lobster roaches, and also feeding techniques. These roaches climb, so you have to make sure they won't escape your tank and get loose in your house. I use forceps to feed my frogs by hand, one roach at a time.
That would be incredibly awesome. I can probably get my red eye on those roaches too. Can the glass bowl trick work or they can climb that also? Also, if I try a pinky this week do I dangle it in his face or just leave it a container with him?
Edit: nvm, started doing some reading. They can climb glass lol.
With all that moss in his enclosure you probably don't want to feed him in there. Huge impaction risk. If you don't use a glass bowl. Whit's are voratious eaters and can accidentally eat some moss. If you have found no poop you may try a warm Honey soak. You can also try a warm Pedialyte bath. Just be sure its Unflavored Pedialyte. Its a 10 to 1 ratio so 1oz Pedialyte for every 10oz of water. 15 to 20 minute duration.
Yeah I have been strictly feeding in glass bowls/separate containers because I do like using moss for moisture retention. I'm sure no moss has been ingested because I only feed in the bowl or container. I'll try the honey soak tonight. I just recently bought a bottle of honey.
Mine stopped eating again too, I am at my wits end though. Hes been going on this down ward spiral since December of last year. I spent over 800.00 on vet bills for them to tell me the next step would be surgery! I am not doing that to him, I don't know whats up with mine either. All I keep hearing is its his age, might be time to go stuff!!!![]()
My 15 year old White's Tree Frog Hetfield (RIP 1996-June 4, 2012) and my little girl Lucy
I'm sorry to hear Blue. Well hey 15 years is a good run, he was loved and cared for, for 15 solid years. You should be happy and proud of that
I'll be hoping for the best for little Hetfield though.
