What are your thoughts?

I'm not against samurai food. I hear it is really good. I've thrown every piece of food you can think of at the WC Cornuta but there has been no huge gain in weight and a lot of the time I'm throwing it out. The minute I placed the GTF in there 30 minutes later it was gone. I saw the little leg sticking out of her mouth. The other WC Cornuta I have gobbles down crickets but nothing else. Is it true they get addicted to the samurai food?

The samurai food is the best thing you can feed them. Did you worm the cornutas? You would have to feed twenty or so of those green tree frogs to notice a weight gain. Syringe feed the samurai food in a paste form.

I get 350 feedings out a $10.00 bag of samurai food. Its very cheap for what the frogs get out of it.

We have an adult WC cornuta (Alice, she is my avatar) and at first she was very hard to get to feed, but with patience, she did start taking the nightcrawlers. She also has had some of the Samurai food. It is excellent for getting weight on them.
What I am wondering is this: If actual breeders and folks with experience are giving you advice YOU asked for, what's the big deal? Feeding it other frogs is going to do exactly what Ra said it would do......guarantee that the cornuta will never want to eat anything else. It is no longer in the wild and why take the risk of passing on parasites or chytrid? We got Alice to eat the worms by using the same methods shown in the video we made for THIS purpose.....to help folks who had difficult to feed frogs.

Best of Luck.
