bit of advice on whites

[Frogmad]

Hey all

As you might remember I picked up 5 whites a week and a bit ago now, most of them I'm happy about and are active and visibly feeding.
However one of them spends 99% of the time that I'm around under a bit of cork snuggled into the earth and moss I have in there for them. I havent seen him feed but I'm sure he's been calling cos someone was calling earlier today and his little bit of cork was moving, (one of the others was sat next to it but 99.9% sure it wasn't that one calling)
So do I leave him and see how he gets on, do I separate him out?
He looks externally perfectly healthy.
I know his age is between 8 months and 18 months.
I'm pretty sure he was the one hiding at the shop, and he has had a fair bit of stress in the past 2-3 weeks, as he has moved from old place he lived to the shop to my house in that space of time!

Any ideas or suggestions gratefully recieved

oh temp is 75-80 during the day dropping to 70ish over night, humidity (not really accurate till I get a digital hygrometer) is averaging 40-60%

how big is the set up hun? it might be cos he's settling in and hasn't found his safe spot yet.

damn I knew I'd forget something!

its a 45x45x60 exo terra so nice and high for them

ihad a few and one of those stayed on the floor under a pice of wood. Still ate but very rarely move. maybe some frogs are just like that.

well 1 of my whites always hides under a piece of cork bark, seems to be his faviroute, where ever i move it too in the viv.
and he's physicaly fine - (not sure about he's mentality is though as his previous owner didnt have the right set up for him atal! amoung other things - poor little guy )

but i have to ask, u said u got 5. are they all in the 45x45x60, because if thats the case, they could all start to suffer from stress, which leads to not eating, and obviosly death. (yours could be suffering from stress) personaly i'd put only 2 in that size viv.

but lets see what others say - i could be wrong.

yeh I would have to agree with the above here, 5 in the size set up you state is a little too small in my opinion, I have 3 and to be honest it's a little small for them!! so it might very well be bullying/ can't get a good spot type thing.

thanks for your replies!
he's just started calling again...noisy little beast that he is! Oh and I have seen him eat now as well so a bit happier
I will save up to get a bigger set up for them, I had been advised it was an ok size for them, but now I know different.
Still trying to figure out names for them all
