You may be overfeeding, try a cube three times per week. To save on expenses, they will also eat pelleted food, like Tetra's Repto-Min. You can alternate feeding Repto-Min and the cubes. I feed my ACFs Repto-Min exclusively.

as far as the expense things go..i dont give a flip what it cost to feed my zoo of pets, i made the choice to get each and every pet i have which is a multidue of them and along with the decision to get the pet comes the responsibility of all care the pet needs to include the $$$$ involved in the care of my pets

thanks for the reply on the amount iam feeding and other items that he might like to eat

Well heres what I think. Its a baby frog right? I think you should feed it every 2days at most. Then go off for every 3days.

Blood worms should NOT be a staple diet.

Try a varied diet:
-Turtles pellets(Reptomin, and wardleys are the best! contains calcium and a few extra minerals needed for growth)
-Sinking carnivore pellets(protein)-Insects(provides stimulation)



You can also prepare your own foods for your frog.
With mine I used to make gelatin suspension. it should feed the frog appropriately.
Grab some tasteless, odorless, chem-less jello.

Study the frogs natural diet.

I still do this with my turtles but it applies to aquatic frogs too.
Turtle food:
40%fish(trout, pan fish, tuna---mainly trout)
20% Crustaceans and mollusks(shrimps, crayfish, snails, slugs, clams)

30% Insects(Crickets, earthworms, roaches, goliath worms, and any other insect I can get my hands on)
Id throw in some veggies,vitamin powder and 2cuttle bones and put it in a blender and hit puree.

Then Id put the mix in a pot and put some water on it and boil it a little bit to kill anything. Then id mix it with the jello and put it in the freezer. Then id tong feed the turtles the frozen food. :P

You can do this to the frogs too. See gelatin is absorbed by enzymes.

Just try your own natural ingredients and voila. Try finding the frogs favorite food and put a couple of them in there for taste. :P

Just a suggestion though.

Im not sure how big my ACF is but he is about a sub adult, I feed him a cube of bloodworm daily, some times when he starts to leave some of it i go back down to a half block then when he seems more hungry after i fed him half a block, the next day i go back to a full block and estimate really. But after reading these replys i get the feeling this might not be the right thing to do but he is perfectly healthy.
I only feed my ACF on bloodworm, i got advised to try different worms but he just didnt seem to be interested in anything else and where i live there isnt much other things i can find.
