    It is great that one seeks advice ! After all, that's why we are here !!!
    There actually may be nothing wrong , or conversely, a change in behavior warrants keeping a close eye on your froggy friend !

    'patience is a virtue' AND 'time is of the essence'

    If there is trouble in the frog enclosure it will be very helpful if one could provide as much of the following information as possible:

    10-lighting
    11-what is, specifically, being used to maintain the temperature of the enclosure
