Milk frog appetite decrease?

[hereces]

I have noticed my adult male milk frog is taking less crickets recently (all other behaviour is normal), Do you think it could be because he is now fully grown? Or could it be because he is breeding mode?

Thanks for your time.

It could be either because he is sick of crickets or more likely, he is ill. Try switching the diet up a bit with other feeder insects. If responds the same way as he has for crickets, then its off to the vet.

I was told thier feeding slows with adulthood. but it also could be an illness as kurt had mentioned

I took him to the vets yesterday and the vet checked him over well and has put him on a 7 day course of antibiotics.
He has refused to take a cricket, wax worm or hopper but is still very active at night and is now sleeping more in the day time.

I really hope the little guy gets better soon.

Hereces,

I'm glad to hear you took him to the vet. Hopefully the antibiotics kick in and he gets his normal appetite back. Let us know how he's doing.

Take care.

I hope he gets well soon! Milks are my favorite, in a nonbias manner lol.
