Have the skinny one examined by a veterinarian experienced in treating reptiles/amphibians. Submit a stool sample to diagnose intestinal parasites. Although this is a docile species, monitor for bullying or aggression in case the larger one is not allowing its cagemate to eat.

Check the temperature in his enclosure. Low temps can affect appetite in reptiles. Offer prey about 2 hours after the heat lamp turns on in the morning. Make sure he is well hydrated by soaking or misting him regularly. It may be a preference. If he is eating the Repashy CGD regularly, don't worry too much about him eating crickets or not.

Thanks for reaching out about Leafy. Seizures in reptiles can definitely due to calcium deficiencies, either lacking in the diet, too cold of an environ or lack of UVB exposure. Diet and husbandry to be corrected, but a veterinary visit can provide injections of these medications, and anti-seizure medications during recovery. Mealworms kept in the refrigerator or crickets straight from the store are insufficient. All insects need to be gut-loaded with dark greens and red/yellow/orange vegetables. Good luck.

The tank may be too cold. If so, Rita will stay on the mat. Low temps can affect appetite and activity in reptiles. Maintain a basking spot temperature in the 90s F. This will produce a gradient of the mid 70s to 80s in the rest of the cage. You can soak her in a warm 50/50 solution of water and unflavored PediaLyte. This will warm her up and treat or prevent mild dehydration. Feed appropriately sized prey. Crickets or dubia roaches are recommended over mealworms for juvenile geckos. They should be no bigger than the space between her eyes. Gut load them for 24 hours prior to offering to maximize nutritional value.

Green Tree Frogs feed exclusively on insects. You can feed mostly crickets which should be gut-loaded (fed a high-protein, nutritious meal before being offered to the frog) and dusted with a calcium and multivitamin supplement a couple of times a week. Flies, grass hoppers, etc. make good food also.
