    If you still have problems with getting them to feed...

    They do fine in higher temperatures. 26-27 celsius with a drop to 24 at night should do fine.

    Chubby frogs spend most of their time burrowed and it would be more worrisome to see them out and about more often than hiding.
    It's healthy and normal behavior for this species, so no. No reason to worry
    They're cute buggers but I hear that they can be quite boring due to them never being out.

    hi, How is she doing in your set up now?
    Its normal that they burrow themselves.
    Kaloula pulchra is quite a hardy species, as I live in Hong Kong, I always see these guys hiding in underground pipes.
    They can tolerate wide range of humidity and if you really wanna see it not burying itself, you can increase the humidity of the bottom of the substrate (or even make it wet thoroughly) so that it feels too wet to be burried. It will get straight out of the mud and come out to breathe and will find another spot to hide. Make sure you get rocks and other things for them to hide, as they feel more comfortable hiding in substrate under rocks or plantations. Hope it would help. Good luck and enjoy!
