    Also I forgot to ask how old and big is he? If its big enough you could also try feeding it adult dubia roaches. Mine loves adult female roaches but for some reason not the males.

    You seem to be dusting his food fine with calcium. You should also dust it's food once a week with multivitamin. Try mixing up his diet more. Like Lija said you probably just have a lazy frog. If it can fit the food in its mouth then it shouldn't be a problem.

    Alan - do you use multivitamins at all?
    Save one animal and it doesn't change the world, but it surely changes the world for that one animal!

    Okay, only had him for a little over a week. What would you recommend for multivitamins (brand, etc.)

    He's almost 3inches, not sure of the exact age, but he's anywhere between 6-10months

    You should dust with multivitamin once a week especially since he doesn't want a varied diet. The multivitamin will help him get some of the nutrients he's not getting because of only eating night crawlers but I would still recommend trying to find some more foods he likes to vary his diet more.

    Probably but I would get him some multivitamin soon just in case. I doubt it's any kind of deficiency disease.
