what kind of frog do you have?How big is he/she? Do you have any pics? what do you currently feed him? You deffently need a better way of monitering if hes eating or not, possibly take him out put him in a rubbermaid with a hidebox and water dish and whatever your feeding him and leave him over night and see if he eats you really need to make sure you moniter this and like kidchameleon said when did you get him?
Good luck
Kayla

Hmmm, by chubby from I’m assuming it’s a White's tree frog? Just by another name, if its not eating something is wrong with it, or its environment, Mine is VERY sensitive too everything, chemicals, fumes, substrates, ect. You can’t miss mine eating, he makes a racket jumps all over the place, and doesn’t stop until he hunts every last moving bug down. He will eat right out of my hand. What are you caging it in ?? i would suggest a Rubbermaid , with paper towel on the bottom and a water bowl , then a hide , keep it very simple, wet the paper towel, and keep the water filled, make sure you use spring water, NOT tap, the chlorine is bad. Keep him in this simple cage too monitor feeding and until you get used too him, then add fake plants things too climb ect. Also, is he Green?? Mine turns VERY dark brown almost black at the slightest problem, he’s very picky, but has never not eaten doesn’t matter what’s wrong he will eat. Good luck with the little guy,
Devon

its a chubby frog. i got him about 3 weeks ago. im trying to feed him crickets, he definately wont eat in out of his enclosure he likes to be deep in the dirt. sometimes in the middle of the night i have caught him sticking his nose out. i'd say hes 2-3 inches wide and 3-4 inches long.
