    Default What are these?

    Hello froglovers
    I have recently got a culture of small cockroach-looking creatures from an expo in Denmark.
    The vendor said that they were for feeding, but he had no experience with pacman frogs, so he couldn't tell me if they were OK so to speak.

    Therefore I am asking for your helping guidance in speciating these little creatures, and tell me if they can be used as feed for my beloved Jabba.
    I have attached some pictures, and i can tell you that they like to dig down and stay buried in the ground. (culture living in a nonfertilized sphagnum substrate)

    Thanks in advance, I hope to hear some thoughts on the subject.
    Keep posting!

    Yes. Some frogs will eat them. Some of them wont.

    Woodlouse? If so I'd say they'd be fine.
