Try wrapping your baby in a dechlor water moistened paper towel to hold him. Have your worm or cricket (remove the back legs) in a cup already calcium/vita D dusted and ready to go. Have a soft Qtip moistened with dechlor water set aside in case you need it to help slide it it a bit. Gently use a clean credit card or shoppers card to carefully open the side of her mouth. Slide the food in just far enough for your frog to close her mouth over the food while removing the card. She will likely close her mouth as soon as the food hits her tongue. Be sure she is upright or slightly leaning forward, not laying back, so she does not choke. She should then swallow it on her own. I then use the wet Qtip and moisten my retf's lips. It helps to make him swallow.
Stay calm and as relaxed as you can.
