A New Arrival, Got Questions!

[Cebby75]

Okay, good to know. But I have had him for only a day, and I do believe he has eaten one cricket yet he's remained burrowed for about 8 hours now. Is this something to be worried about or is he indeed just adapting to his new environment?

I've heard periods of going without eating much is fairly common to new arrivals, so I didn't think it was something to be worried about just yet.

Also, I didn't purchase him from large corporate business like PetsMart/Petco etc. I got him from a local exotic pet store, where it's living conditions were much more suitable than I have seen at other sellers.

Did you ask them when he ate last? These frogs hide a lot - it's how they work. Give it optimal conditions and try feeding it every day or two and see if it responds. Don't let it go too long though - if it does have a health issue, it gets harder and harder for the frog to recover once a week or more has gone by.
