It's about 4.5" from nose to vent

Could you take a picture of the whole set up ?
Ensure enough air humidity (70%-80%) and a humid substrate also.
It seems you use coco fiber which is good.
It is no mater to put him in a separate tub to feed.
It will stress him and with coco fiber, there is no major risk for impaction.
He has a lso to learn hunting in his environment.

Also, he is young but big enough to eat bigger preys, which is necessary.
Feed it 2 to 3 times a week with : dubia roaches, crickets, locusts, nightcrawlers.
2 mices (Young mouses) per month is ok also.
don't forget to dust with calcium 2 insects per week and with calcium + vit D3 1 to 2 insects each 15 days for example. Vit D3 is essential so that they can fix the calcium, but too high quantity can kill them (Toxic for digestive).

Yes digging is normal. Depends on the duration .
If you have usual care parameters and your frog burrows for weeks, then it could be it is stressed or whatever (Like mine...).
Take care when he burrowed and for how long by estimating if he was fed enough before.
He shouldn't go estivating with a moist substrate and 84°F.

Don't forget also that recommended temperatures in the care sheet are temperatures on the substrate.
Thanks for the help and advice, Grabius. Here's his setup:


That's a 25 watt incandescent bulb on the top left, and it gets that side to about 84 during the day.I've measured again and it actually gets to about 73 at night, but still fairly warm where he's dug (in the back corner there next to the small heat mat; it's warm to the touch). He still hasn't touched his water area, or left his hole on his own accord. Do you think it's too cold?
I had him in a warm bath today and he passed a huge turd Also fed him while he was in there, but I guess from now on I'll feed him in his enclosure.
Thanks again
