Okay, I will admit to giving Wax Worms to my small Green Tree Frogs (not sure what they are, they're wild caught). I started giving them when I saw that one of my 3 was much smaller than the other 2 and I thought it'd help in him gaining some weight and some size. Well, that paid off but now I have a problem. The other two, whenever I gave the other one a Wax Worm they too would eat one and I fear that they are hooked on the fatty worms. Is there a way to wean them from the worms? They won't eat the crickets, I've thrown in 4 small crickets and they won't touch them but when I throw in 3 Wax Worms (1 per frog) they gobble them up in nothing flat.
I say go cold turkey
They'll eat the crickets when they get hungry enough !
