    Default Frog not eating

    I am worried that my Map Treefrog is not eating. I put 5 crickets in the vivarium with him 3 days ago and at least 3 are still in there. I've had the frog less than a week. Is this normal. Should I be worried about him?

    Humidity is 75% to 100%. He has water and places to climb. I mist him twice a day.

    Perhaps he's still adjusting to the new environment. If you've had him less than a week and he's perhaps eaten 2 crickets I don't think you need to panic jus yet!

    Someone else might jump in with differing ideas though.

    My first frog was a bit fussy at the begining so i discovered that they dont touch their food if its been in the tank for more than 24 hours. So i had to take out old food and put in new to temp it.

    I could be totally wrong with this but it seemed to work for me, for some reason. Also i agree, its probs just a little shaken up.

    But maybe and i am certainly no expert but maybe your humidity is slightly to high?

    How often are you getting readings of 100%? Is it possible that you're misting right onto or above the hygrometer?

    It's a digital hygrometer. I've seen it at 100% once, so maybe that was the case. It is usually 75% to 80%.

    Will he starve himself if I don't change his food up? I certainly dont want him to do that.
