    In answer to question 3, I would feed crickets mainly. However, dependent on the species of worm you mean, Mealworms should be OK but I definitely wouldn't feed Earthworms as they are probably contaminated and Pac-Mans are not known for turning down a potential food item

    As Desertheat stated Earthworms are fine as long as they are not dyed or scented. Any feeder could be contaminated not just one specific kind. Earthworms are the most nutritous feeder for frogs. Dubia Roaches are next.

    As for the Moss question. Long Sphagnum would cause impaction if ingested. If enough of the milled moss was ingested it could as well, but they can be used for housing if you feed your frog in a separate container of from tongs. Coir passes through their digestive track easier than other substrates.
