I got one awhile back and he is about 2-3''. Well all of a sudden he's stopped eating. Nothing in the tank has changed so I would like some advice. I think the water is too cold. its always been about 72 degrees.

Might be a little cool, but my water was that cool and mine always ate fine. Make sure you give the frog a land area it can estivate/brumate in. Mine went off feed from time to time. Nothing to worry about as long as the frog is holding its weight pretty well.

normally he eats like 4 crickets a day and so about 4 or so days ago he stopped. how long till i should really worry about the weight thing.

Well, 4 crickets a day is a lot of food. I would cut back some. Feed him 2 or 3 times a week instead. As I said, I would not worry unless the frog starts losing weight rapidly, but after being fed 4 crickets a day for while, that is not going to happen any time soon.

lol he's got a smile on his face. Great looking Budgets. Where are these guys native to?

Southern South America. The dry llanos and such. They come out of brumation every year during the wet season to breed/eat/etc. and then return to the ground.
