OK so...

I am a university student and recently acquired a very young AFC (so young I cannot yet determine the gender).

I thought I was feeding it just fine (the bottle says 4-6 pellets, but I normally give a little more because the frog eats it all quickly) with some aquatic Frog pellets from the petstore and the frog had never acted "awkward" before this afternoon.

All of a sudden, I hear splashes and the little frog is jetting from the bottom of its "aquarium" (more like plastic tub) to the top and then back down again. S/he has done this multiple times within a short time range. I am worried that something is wrong.

I have tried looking for answers on the Internet, but I am so new at being a frog owner that I just feel (hopefully) that this is a normal stage, somehow.

Any help would REALLY be appreciated. Please and thank you so much.

Worried frog owner,
Jammy
