    But Grif, can they shed so early? I don't know if you have seen the pictures I posted. He is about 2 1/2 inches yet not sure how old he is. He's bigger than other babies I've seen so maybe around 3-4 months?( I bought him being a baby going juve I guess) He did this this "leg-cramp" looking move with his hind legs, rotated a bit and closed his eyes shut as he swallowed and all while he was eating.

    Is it normal that he has not burrowed himself? I always maintain temps or 80-82 during the day and 77-78 at night. Danfrog mentioned that if temps are good enough, frogs won't do it?

    they shed all the time, 2.5" is not early
    to the second Q yes it is normal, as long as he looks good and eating on his own, whatever he does is normal for him.
    Save one animal and it doesn't change the world, but it surely changes the world for that one animal!
