The frog hasn't eaten since I found it a week ago I was wondering if possibly hasn't started eating bugs yet? This came to mind because I read something about froglets sustaining themselves with their tails. I will include a picture I was viewing online, the developmental stages of the green frog. Where it's legs meet it's bottom the frog still looks a little pointy (like the frog in the blue cup) and there's a little nub so I thought maybe it is young.
