    Sphagnum moss!!! aaahhhh! Moss can cause impaction. It safer to use eco earth or other coconut fiber.

    Nice frog though. Fantasies are evil looking.

    Congrats on receiving your frog alive and well! Yes, if you feed it in there and frogs ingests the moss substrate it could be bad for it. Ground coconut fiber like Plantation Soil, Eco Earth, etc. is a much better substrate since frog can pass it through digestive tract without problems.
    Remember to take care of the enclosure and it will take care of your frog !​

    Congrats on the little guy/girl. He/she is very cute. It would be best for you to feed in a seperate container. Feeding in his home could cause impaction as was stated above. I'm glad you have decided to feed in a seperate container.
