    I have the same problem with dubias burrowing... They go under the substrate in like thirty seconds, but about 70% of the time my frog won't eat while I'm watching so I have to leave food in there.

    There are other people that can give better advice, but I'd personally feed him whatever he'll eat until he reaches a healthy weight, and maybe offer other food with the wax worms. Watch out for impaction though! Waxworms can be really bad for that. The high fat content should only cause problems if you do it long term.

    Should be fine, but keep offering other foods as well so you can use the Waxworms as a treat soon rather than him only eat them. Chunks of earthworm about as fat and long as a Waxworm may trick him into eating earthworms.

    Thanks for the great advice. I think I'll try night crawlers cut up once I get him used to tongs again. I just got more crickets too so I'll keep offering them too. These seem to be the only two food items he is at all interested in!
