    Default Gel Food?

    I saw this in the Pacman frog forum for Mazuri Gel foods, would this be good food for ACF, I wonder?

    Hi there
    I really dont know, when i think of gel foods i think of feeder foods. If the food is for frogs, i would but it
    in a feeder bowl with mealworms and/or earthworms then the frog eats some unintentionally. I dont know
    if it would work for African Clawed Frogs though. Sorry!

    I'm not too worried about them eating it, clawed frogs will pretty much eat anything, living, dead, or pellets. Appetite or interest in food is never a problem with these animals lol.. the nutritional content looks pretty good on this stuff. It's just kind of pricey so I was wondering if anyone has ever fed it to their frogs.

    I kind of wonder what the consistency of the food is. Is it like jello I wonder? I don't think I'd want it to come in contact with the water but I could hand feed it easily above the water surface.

    I think it would be worth a try. I have seen several people do home made gels for fish, that might be worth a try for frogs.
