    Ya that's a little cool for them during the day, you want to try and get it up around 82f during the day and let it drop some in the night. And something to think about is if the air is only 70f then the substrate will be even colder meaning its probably sitting in the 60's some were. He is more then likely having a hard time digesting what he has already eaten. For the feeding question, mine are adults and they are fed a nice big meal once a week and they are happy. The odd time one will show signs he/she is hungry half way through the week so I will give something to hold them over till the big feed.

    Like the before have mentioned you temperature should be 27-28 C. I wouldn't feed your Horned Frog mice. There can be health problems feeding rodents. Also are they really grasshoppers or are they crickets? There is a difference. If they are wild caught grasshoppers there can be a problem of parasites. You also need to " dust" the food with vitamins. Good Luck.
