I purchased a White's Tree Frog - Kermit - one week ago. We have him in a 10 gallon tank (recommended by the local pet store) now and we are planing on getting the one that stands taller then wide soon. I am not sure of Kermit's age, dont know if he is an adult yet or a juvenile but he is about 2 4/5 inches long.

Originally we tried feeding him wax worms, which he had no interest in at all. Then I got some crickets (medium with a couple of large ones). I was told 2 every 2 days but thought he looked thin, so I gave him 3 on Monday, 3 on Wednes, 4 on Friday (cause that's how many snuck out) and he would get all of them within about 1 min. On Friday is when I read about the glass bowl trick, but he still looks really thin, ran out and got him 2 dozen more as well as 3 meal worm. I put 2 crickets and 1 meal worm in his dish today and he ate the crickets right away, but doesn't seem to have any interest in the meal worm right now.

Now, the reason I think that he is thin is based on other photos that I have seen on the internet as well as on this sight. You can really see the bones in his back as well as the ones by the rear end area (sorry don't know any of the technical terms for the frog body). I am going to try to post some picts at the bottom of this thread but if I cant manage that, there are 3 pictures of Kermit on my profile page.

Please, let me know if you think that he looks under weight. I also want to know if it sounds like he is eating to much, or if this seems normal.

Thanks a bunch,
Cristen
