Is my juvenile White's Tree Frog too thin?

I have a 6th month old (give or take) Whites named Bahloo that is about 1.5-1.75 inches long. I don't know if he's underweight or if his weight is normal for this age. I call it a "him" but I have no idea the real gender.

He has a bit of a point on his back and when he moves you see his backbone sometimes as well as the outline of his skull - these are by no means pronounced but should I up his food regimen for a little to fill him out a little or does he look pretty healthy? (See pictures).

At this age and size should I continue to feed him once a day? I've been feeding him about 5-7 small/small-medium crickets a night. He has no trouble eating them in one gulp so I think he can handle larger crickets now, at least normal-medium ones...

Sorry for the b&w ohotos --> Bahloo doesn't like the flash so I take long exposures in near darkness under his faint heat bulb whenever possible instead.
