My gray tree frog doesn't trust me anymore!

Ok- so here's some pictures showing how he's been losing weight over time. March 7th- back when he ate a dubia every day out of my hand. He's the smaller frog:http://s356.photobucket.com/user/Dac...tml?sort=3&o=2
More in a minute

March 28- a few days after he stopped accepting dubias, before I got him crickets. (I think )

Double post.

And finally, just a minute ago I noticed this object next to him on a branch. Legitimate frog poo, or just the result of some swallowed substrate?

There's been a large cricket with the run of the viv overnight which he showed no interest in. Then, this morning, he pounces on and eats it right when I walk into the room! So he is eating!

Good you saw him eat something!

I'm no expert on frogs, since I only keep toads, but one of my Bufos used to do the pacing and they do it everytime their tank substrate is changed (every three-four weeks). To me it indicates stress.

I gave my guys a larger enclosure, since they'd grown, and plantes two large ferns, got two low ceramic caves, soft rocks, succulent plants and generally do alot to maintain an enclosure that's as natural as possible, with numerous amounts of choices for hiding/burrowing.

I'd check how he's interacting with the other two frogs, especially if they are bigger than him: Are they food agressive? Is he stressed out by them? If they are bigger than him, that in itself can be intimidating, since most frogs and toads eat offspring of their own species. And if they are food agressive - and there's two of them, he might be too stressed to go to the bowl, if they're there first.

Otherwise I'd leave him alone for now, to give him a chance to cool down. Check if your terrarium is placed in a highly trafficed area where he might feel too exposed.

I don't suspect a troll b'cause the crickets are dissappearing, but he's loosing weight. Before I was introduced to the feeder bowl method for crickets, I thought my two Bufos ate ALOT of crickets. Until I found a literal night club under their water bowl 8.l and in their plant.

The other frog that normally shares his enclosure has been moved in with my third frog, who (formerly) had his own enclosure. I think its stress as well, but I don't know what might be stressing him. One thing that happened recently was that I noticed the plants were dying. I removed the sheet of moss covering the surface and discovered that the substrate was bone dry. I removed the plants and moss, stirred up the substrate, soaked with a spray bottle till it was moist again, and added new plants. But he started pacing and refusing food well after this happened and the other frog didn't seem affected. I might try moving the enclosure- and if that doesn't work I'll move the other frogs to his enclosure and place him in theirs. Yesterday he ate two millipedes (relax not the cyanide kind), and today he devoured a mayfly. But he still ignores roaches.

YES! VICTORY! He just ate a small moth from my fingers.

Today. These past few days he's been spending an awful lot of time sitting on the substrate, dark brown in color.

i haven't the slightest whether he's eating or not.
