Feeding and 'taming' tips for an easily stressed whites tree frog.

[Diver]

I recently bought 2 whites tree frogs from a pet shop, one adult frog and one juvenile. They both appear to get on well with each other and the adult frog responds well to human interaction. The younger frog however gets stressed easily and turns brown when i try to handle him which makes feeding him difficult. i would prefer to monitor his intake of food rather than just placing crickets in their enclosure for them to find but this is difficult as i cannot feed him in a separate tub as he gets scared and clings to the side of the box and wont eat anything and when i do place crickets in his tank and place him next to them he gets scared and jumps away. i dont believe he is ill since i have seen him eat crickets in his tank on his own and he does not look underweight.

Can anyone give me advice on getting him used to human interaction and some ideas on how i can feed him more efficiently and minimize stress for my frog.

If you want to minimise stress, best bet is to stop handling him and moving him from one enclosure to another, frogs really just need to be left alone. Being in a cage with a larger frog could also be causing stress, you may need to separate them depending on how big the size difference is. I've never really understood why people think they need to hand feed their frogs?
