I recently purchased a pair of young White's Tree Frogs, and I have a bit of a problem. One of the frogs is happy and has a great appetite, will eat whenever a cricket is tossed into his vicinity, but the other hasn't really eaten at all. He is a little bit smaller than his tank mate, bu they don't interact a whole lot within the tank. Their temperature and humidity are both good (around 85 degrees on the warm end with approximately 60% humidity). The little one (the one that won't eat)seems fairly lethargic, but he has no external causes for concern. Initially, he ate a pair of crickets, and has very occasionally lunged at one (he had a hard time catching them), but now he doesn't really show an interest. What can I do???

How much smaller is he than his cagemate and how long has he been lethargic? What is the temperature on the hot and cool side of the enclosure and what is the humidity?
Not eating doesn't necessarily call for concern, unless your leaving crickets all night and the frog still isn't eating after some time. Some frogs have a real hard time with light, and absolutely will not hunt untill a few hours after dark. That could be the problem...

how long has he not eaten for? i would separate them if you think there is any problems, and put the less healthy one in a quarentine type set up, with soft moss and some leaves and a plant or two, but make sure you monitor how much he eats. if he still doesn't eat then try a different food like worms or beetles and if he has trouble actually catching them try feeding him with tweesers.
