    Water temp is too low. Must be 78° to 85° at all times. This will lower appetite. Carlos has you covered on the rest.

    Agree with Colleen/Jerrod the temperature needs to increase. That should raise frog metabolism and it's activity level. IRT aestivation; it should be offered in the fall to frogs over 3.5 in. SVL. There are threads that go over process or you can also read reference mentioned in post no. 2.
    Remember to take care of the enclosure and it will take care of your frog !​

    I've had my budgett's for 3 or 4 years. One year I didn't aestivate him and he barely ate the whole year. The next year I aestivated him and he never missed a meal. Something to consider.
