    Freshly molted dubia are a lot easier for your frog to digest as well. I'm just throwing that out there, since i'm sure you already know. If you feed off males from your colony regularly (since we often do not need them and they have no affect on production) this could be a contributing factor.

    Edit: it's rare to find me on this side, it's daunting with all the true pacman experts! I'll go back to African bullfrogs now.

    Thanks to all for your help ! Will only feed night crawlers for couple weeks and see if there is an effect. Do have Repti Boost on Emergency Kit so will open bottle and start using it. Also, will wait a week and if no poop; honey bath is it. She goes crazy when I take her out of enclosure but afterwards was her old self and no more continuos puffing. Do have a funny anecdote for yesterday end.
    After sunset she came to enclosure front, so I fed her 1/2 dozen night crawlers and on the 4th one, she got hold of my index finger... ouch ! Feeding from the top is different than from the front doors of ExoTerra; so I made a mistake while aproaching . Saw her coming for finger and started retracting hand; but too late. Got me sideways on top of nail and finger side. Frog was for a moment dangling in air latched to finger and as I started lowering her she let go and dropped from 2-3 in. height with no apparent damage to anyone other than a scratch on my finger tip but no blood drawn. She ate 2 more worms after that... quite an exciting day .
    Remember to take care of the enclosure and it will take care of your frog !​
