    See the FF care sheet for red eyed tree frogs.

    If they do not eat soon they will not do well.
    It is highly unlikely they will eat FF.

    Buy pin-head and small cricks
    Have them shipped expedited, as in.......... overnighted.
    Or,find a herp shop ......and take a drive

    I would not recommend changing their "nighttime schedule" .
    They are 'instinctively' nocturnal. It would be stressful on them.
    They know when in day and night - we can't change this.

    This is news to me. I thought baby red eyes eat fruit flies?

    I have seen my 1 month old red eyes eat flies, but they do not consume them as readily as they do crickets. Put 4 - 6 little crickets in the tank with them and they go bananas to get them in their bellies

    I noticed my frogs are always changing colors at night and day. Always go from green to brown. Also I noticed they sleep a lot. Sometimes even during night time with all lights off, but I'm assuming that's normal for being under stress and being babies.

    Yeah I have 5 reds and they will wake up and eat then sleep then get up and eat more. They sort of do whatever they want lol

    Reds will do their best to match what they are sleeping on in color. At night they turn dark to blend in with the night better. I call it their Hunting Outfit lol.
