A min. 10gallons per frog is a good rule to go by... tree frogs generally prefer height over width in a home.

as for crickets make sure thay are no bigger that the length of its head some even say the width between its eyes to be safe... as for numbers babys tend to eat more but as and adult 3 or 4 every other night should be sufficient. I feed my grey which as similar care 2 a night... 1 on the second night if the crickets are a lil bigger than usual.

When I got my new frog she wouldnt eat when I feed her. But I then just left crickets in the cage, some frogs just wont eat when you feed them so I always have a crickets in the cage.

I plan on feeding it 1/4 crickets because that is what the breeders feed them currently
