    Although Bombina Bob is right, I think it's best you don't take the risk. Impaction in frogs is not something you want to experience, and although I've yet to experience it, I've heard plenty about it.

    Coconut fiber is safe, and good for burrowing. I use it for both my Pacific Chorus frog and Long Toed Salamanders tanks, so I'm certain it will fit your chubby frog.
    My Amphibians:
    1.0.0 Rana Catesbiana (Bumpy Digtoad )
    1.0.0 Pseudacris Regilla (Levi )
    1.1.0 Ambystoma Macrodactylum (Urtham and Gargan )
    2.2.0 Bombina Orientalis ( Rosa, Sasha, Aleksis, and Dimitri )
