I have two horned frogs. A 1 and a 3 year old. The older one (Ikai) has been a quite passive frog compared to the other. She has never moved as much and when she goes into hibernation she stays buried up to 6 months.
This year I tried to wake her after 5 months following advice of a fellow redditor. She immediately went back down again. When she wouldnt resurface for another month or even more, I changed the lightbulb. No change. Keep in mind that at this point she has been buried for almost 8 months consistently.
So.. her tank is now definitely warm enough 26-28°C and its getting misted twice a day.
I'm starting to get worried.
She has eaten a lot of grasshoppers but I mainly fed her fish. It was always covered in vitamin powder.
Yesterday evening I thought of maybe putting her in a smaller box with less substrate so she cant cover herself completely and try to encourage her appetite.
What else could I do?
EDIT: she definitely isn't loosing weigh but she's also rather small I think. In march she weighed 195gr, about 40gr more than a year before
