Thanks for the info and kind words Don, I'm really pleased with them.

I like and use Cricket bowls because it allows you to monitor what your frogs are eating. It also prevents the crickets from getting lost and then dying somewhere in the cage. I put mine near the water bowl so they're sure to see it. Great looking frogs by the way.

Thanks Cheri.
What type of bowl would be best for crickets? Won't they just jump out?

I tried a cereal bowl tonight and it works awesome. The crickets couldn't get ttraction to climb or jump out and the frogs piled right in to eat.

I'll do this from now on to try and reduce the amount of substrate my frogs seem to eat.

I find I go through less crickets when I use a cricket bowl. The crickets simply wont jump out.

Thanks again for the help everyone.

I've had the frogs fro just over 48 hours and they haven't eaten yet.
I've put some crickets in a small bowl and they are yet to touch any.
I'm a bit worried because these are small, young frogs and I've read that they should eat every day.

I managed to get the slightly larger frog to eat a cricket this morning, However the smaller one still hasn't eaten.
I've covered the side and front of the viv in an effort to reduce their stree levels, Hopefully this will help them settle in a bit faster.
