Morty still wont eat :(

[teacherfrog]

Sorry to be such a pest, but Im not sure if I should be worried about Morty or not. I fixed up his tank, stabilized humidity and temps (finally!) and this is the 3rd day home with me and he still wont eat his dinner Ive offered him two crickets and he wont touch either of them. He just backs into the corner of his enclosure and stares at them. What can I do to entice him to eat? Short of cricket seasoning lol, I don't know what else to do.

3 days is not very long for a frog adjusting to a new environment. How big is he and what size crickets are offering?

He ate!!!! He ate 3 small crickets and he also pooped twice in the cage today. I assume that means he's happy... or at least not traumatized. My question is when should I move him out of the critter keeper into the 10 gallon tank? and the temp is still holding around 76 with an UTH attached the side. Do I need a bigger UTH or another one? or is that temp ok?

That temp is ok for night time, but needs to be a bit warmer for day time. What size is the UTH you have?

[teacherfrog]

It is an 8 w small uth that was recommended to me by petsmart.

That is correct size for a 10 gallon. You can add a second or use a heat lamp with a dimmer switch and a 50 watt infrared bulb.

I will probably add a second. When do you think I should move him from the critter keeper to the big tank?
