    I would NOT feed any frogs rosies or ANY type of goldfish........they carry a bacteria that could make your frog sick or even cause death.
    We will feed mollys or guppies instead........they are a great snack for our frogs.

    Probably not if he/she is comfortable eating within his/her enclosure. Don't want any unnecissary stress. Don't feed too many they are really filling.

    Usually at night when your frog awakens is the best time to offer food. You can also put the fooe in just be fore it time for him/her to wake up. Sometimes hunger makes them wake up and begin to chase their food. A good schedule for a baby is everyday for healthy fast growth. Dust the food with calcium every other feeding. Dust with a multivitamin once a week. I offer food everyday for my baby and did the same for Grif when he was a baby all the way up to a juvinile. This promotes strong healthy growth. My baby Green Cranwelli eats when its hungry so it doesn't eat for a day or two sometimes. I guess it all depends on your frog. Look at the care article for Pacmans it might have a feeding scedule listed in it. I like to do my own and it seems to work for me so far.

    Do you dust your crickets? I have noticed my brown cranwelli likes to go after smaller size dusted crickets more than larger or undusted ones.

    I've noticed this in Grif for his large crickets. Maybe they see them easier when coated with the white calcium dust.
