    Have you tried changing up it's diet a little? Try offering him/her a small pinkie, or hornworms always get a lot of interest from my pets. I would even try a few superworms.

    Those random change of colors could be the frog toxing out from the untreated water. I would make sure everything is treated and that you give your frog a bath with just treated water so it can rinse off and detox.

    I would definitely try superworms. They are my frogs favourite food but don't give too many because they aren't very nutritious.

    I agree on the hornworms. Especially if they are the blue colored (fed artificial diets) because the color is striking and most animals won't refuse. I am about to feed my GABF some hornworms that I have raised and they are basically chunky blue candy treats.

    Agreed, dust these with calcium because they have a low Ca:P ratio. You could gut load these with wheat germ, carrots, or anything else nutritious to help out a little. My frog absolutely loves these and on days when she won't take a dubia roach or a canadian nightcrawler she will almost always jump at a wriggling superworm.

    First I put her in treated water and she squirted old water out. Then I put in her in more treated water and 10 minutes later I added honey to it. She's still a pale green right now.
