    It can take anywhere from 3 to over a week for them to poop. Superworms are difficult to digest and would stay in their system longer. If you are worried about him/her being constipated try soaking him/her in luke warm de-chlorinated water with 3 drops of honey disolved in the water. Make sure the water is no deeper than up to your frogs chin. Be very careful. Also be sure that before you handle him/her wash your hands very thoroughly with a very mild cleanser. Nothing with a strong fragrence. Rinse really well and dry your hands completely. Then rerinse your hands with de-chlorinated water and leave them wet. After this you are ready to handle him/her.

    Soak him/her for 10 minutes. He/she may not poop yet so do not be concerned yet.

    Keep us posted.

    You're welcome. You may have to soak him/her 2 or 3 more times, but only put honey in the first soak. The rest should only be with de-chlorinated water and only once per night.
