    Are your frogs all in the same tank?

    When I first got mine I was worried about drowning crickets, but not one has died from drowning once, as they just don't avoid being eaten long enough to. The worst that's happened is I've had to upright a stunned cricket who landed upside down in the water. I've heard reports of some people claiming they can be trained to eat freeze-dried/dead food, but I doubt it's an easy transition.

    actually it's easier than u might think
    u start by using tweezers to make the food crawl on the ground and if u touch the lower lip of the toad it will reflexively open its mouth and attack the prey
    soon they'll hop at the tweezers
    i trained my toadlets to eat bloodworms off a bamboo toothpick in 3 weeks
