New Amazon milk frogs

[hereces]

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.

I didn't see my 1st Red Eye Tree Frog eat for three weeks and I'm sure he was when I was sleeping since he kept his weight on.

Let them settle in and offer the meal through the night since that is when they will start exploring as they begin to feel comfortable with their new home.

I find dangling waxworms in front of my milk frog's face is irresistible. They will hunt crickets but you are right, most of the dust comes off.

I just managed to feed the little guy 2 crickets.

Thanks again everyone.

Both frogs are settled and eating well but one is twice the size of the other, Is it normal for frogs to have such different rates of growth?

You might have a girl and a boy frog. I got two red eyes at the same time as babies and at first they were the same size, but rather quickly the girl grew much faster than the boy and was double his size in no time. As long as the smaller one is not afraid of the bigger one and is eating fine you shouldn't have a problem.
