Well i got my frogs during winter season so they were not eating as much and i didn't have a heat pad then, So they rarely ate but now that season is over they just kept growing and growing and i had them when they were babies so it took about three months to finally establish what gender they really were, and i have one that's still a wildcard not sure if it's a male or female so you can get the idea of who ate more and got bigger faster. But now they are all eating fine
