ACFs big enough to handle worms?

Well I can see that being true with pacman frogs for one reason. Crickets are a *staple* for a lot of frog owners. As in, they are fed over and over and over to these animals. Feeding any frog the same thing continually is not 'good'. That is why people gut load and calcium dust their crickets, to make up for the lack of variety in their diet and artificially make the crickets more nutritious.

Having cake once won't give you diabetes but eating cake 7 days a week will. So once a month having crickets won't cause any harm.

Exactly. While they aren't really tired of reptomin and their occasional shrimp pellet treat, I would like to get them more vitamins and minerals as they are growing.
Do you know anything about feeding cockroaches to ACFs? I'd imagine they would at least have a very nice protein count.

I give my ACF roaches as well. The more variety the better.

Yeah, i also toss in some lateralis roaches. They're not big enough to handle dubias yet

Also, ACF loves a good chase when the roaches goes skimming the water surface quickly.

Hopefully I can find a more reptile/amphibian, or aquarium based pet store around here. I have the pleasure of choosing petsmart or petco, which are honestly not too different. Nor have I seen the ones around me sell roaches. I wonder if I could even find a local breeder.
