Yikes, glad you found this place, your reptile place is giving you some terrible info. Your frog doesn't need to brumate. Your temps are ok, may want to bring them up a little, humidity could also come up some. Overall your conditions sound good. I would try a more active type food like crickets to get him going. From his size, he should be eating most every day, because it sounds like he is still a juvenile. If he won't eat on his own, force feeding soon will be necessary. I had to do this a few times with my fantasy frog, and found the easiest method was with roaches by just pushing it's side shell between the frogs lips until it opens it's mouth. Once it downs one, they tend to open their mouths for a bit after and you can pop others in if you are quick. I also found that waiting for a molt made it easier and less stressful for the frog. The honey soaks are only needed if the frog is showing signs of an impaction. If the frog is weak, you can do 10% unflavored pedialite solution to replace some electrolytes.
