Suggestions on substrate

Thanks, Bryce! Frog has incredibly bad aim and was getting more coco than cricket in a bite. Frog is barely over an inch in length, so pinhead crickets that fit his mouth are a difficult target! I'll look at switching to coco when he's bigger.

Depending on the range of sizes your local cricket provider carries, you may be able to buy 2nd moult crickets, which are a little bigger. It may be a bit too soon, but they definitely should be able to handle them around 1.5 inches. At their current size, flightless fruit flies would probably be a pretty good fit. The larger species, Hydei, is around the size of a pinhead. I find they're a bit meatier, as well. They come in a culture, so you basically buy a tube and they reproduce in it. It lasts about 2-4 weeks. They can climb glass though. If they're dusted with calcium/multivitamin powder they don't climb very, and you can block their way out. They can be very useful for smaller species and younger frogs, and having them available without a trip to the store is convenient. I figured I'd mention them because when frogs are that size they're pretty convenient. Good luck with frog!

I had some luck with worm butts too when she didn't want crickets, but it requires you snip off a section of a live worm (if you do it right they will heal and survive). The down side is they don't always keep moving so your frog may not want it. I was doing sections of mealworms for a while, too, but that requires them being ok with your hand moving the food.

Hi, I would really watch when your feeding that she doesn't get one of those small rocks in her mouth and ends up swallowing it. I'm not saying change it but when you feed your frog I would stand there and watch it eat till the feeders are gone. When I first got my firebellies back in the day I had them setup on rock like you, while one over shot a cricket one day and ended up getting a rock in her mouth. Luckily I was there and scooped him up and was able to push under his mouth and got it out. Again not saying change your whole setup but I would be care full and pay close attention when feeding.
