Lol! Nope that's not really the case when it comes to your frogs. Probably would taste good fried though. I've eaten scorpions and they're crunchy. Not bad really.

Re: What are some of the most common mistakes new pacman frog owners make?
As a rule, we offer our froglets & juveniles food nightly. The adults eat every 3 to 4 days.....they eat bigger meals and need more time to digest them.
One of the most frequent problems I have come across is new owners not knowing they MUST use de-chlorinated water!!!
The frogs absorb vitamins & nutrients through the skin......as well as any harmful chemicals. We prefer Prime as a de-chlorinator for our use. It is the best so far and is very cost efficient for the number of frogs & tadpoles we keep & raise.

We'll look into that BG........the Prime has been good for us. Here in Texas our water is heavily chlorinated and the Prime has been the only one to get the levels we were looking for so far. But I am willing to buy some Pondcare and test it!

How might I go about feeding crickets?
Should I just drop them in there (the terrarium)?

I use Tetra Fauna Aquasafe for reptiles and amphibians. As far as I know it works fairly well. I guess my frogs would be dead if it didn't. I want to look into Prime though. A good track record for breeders of multiple frogs says a lot for a product.
