We have two White's... had them for almost 2 months or so. We've only fed them crickets so far.. and they'll eat tons of them. We've gotten both small and large ones (since they've grown so much) and theyre happy with both. We put 8 or so in their terrarium at once and they hop around and eat them up. If one eats more than the other, we'll give the other one a couple more with feeding tongs. Crickets might be a little more work than mealworms... But these two seem to love them. We feed our other two, Green tree frogs, crickets as well. You can get a cheap little plastic keeper for them and get the gut-loading cricket food and quencher for all probably $20... We keep about 50 crickets at a time in this plastic keeper, was marketed as a hermit crab cage.. but whatever. Crickets are about 10 cents each around here.
It sounds like your white's is older than ours, as its croaking... so it should definitely be eating more, I'd think. Our Greenie aka Chloe will occasionally chirp once or twice, but not too much. Wasabi is the noisiest out of the bunch so far.. he's been waking me up the last few mornings.
Oh yea.. and we feed them nightly. The White's will eat about 4-5 small ones a night.
