    So so far ive given Frank about four pedialyte baths and force fed him three times but he'll only eat a small piece of reptaboost dusted crawlers per night because he has trouble swallowing it or it takes him a while. I feed him at about 9:30 pm and cant wait too long for him to swallow to give him another piece because i have to be up at 4:20am for work. Should i try feeding him in the evening and at night in order to get more food and reptaboost in him?

    i see we are on a same schedule lol nice coming home early, isnt it? Sucks to wake up early as much lol

    You know you dont have to feed a guy at 9:30. Lights in our reptile room and on at 7:30, down and 7:30 in summer, this way i have time to do everything before bed time. They turn off earlier in winter. But really if you prefer feeding in the morning, that is fine, because morning for some people still evening

    It doesnt matter when, some would eat and during a day, as long as he eating, stuff him as much as possible, you can offer food at night and morning. For your frog the smaller portions given more frequent the better.

    Unfortunately i wake up early because i have a two hour drive to work lol. Ill try to feed him three times a day. I was wondering how you feed your frogs crawlers. Do you always cut them because that sounds like a waste of worms hehe

    Yes continue with baths for another day or two, then just let him be and just feed.

    Can you make your frog try to bite you? Cause I would do that to frogs that wouldn't eat and shoved food in their mouths once opened, after that, they figured out what the food was.

    Usually i would rub his lips with the food and get him to open his mouth but recently he hasnt done that. I meant if im always gonna have to cut the worms or do the frogs ever eat worms whole.
