Ahh thanks so much!
Currently I can see him trying to push out stool (with some visable but not moving).
I fear he devoured some of the substrate or frog moss (which I just learned is actually bad for frogs).
Uhm.. about a week he refused. Three crickets were left in there and I only see one; I'm assuming he ate them.
And I'll make sure! It's super 'moss soft' carpet but I'm going to inspect it thoroughly.

White's Tree Frog.
