    They probably wouldnt eat the frozen bugs. I would just stick with crickets until you can find something else for them to eat. I hope this helps!

    Im just curious if he ate one, would it hurt him? is there anything that could hurt him? I received so freeze dried grass hoppers from someone, and I figured to give it a go if it wont hurt him.

    If they are not captive bred or labeled specifically for reptiles and/or amphibians then yes it would. Feeding dead things even freeze dried is not good. Even it has been dead for 5 minutes the decaying process has already begun. Insects from outside can also have chemical that could hurt your frog.

    It most likely is, although you would be better off feeding live food as it offers a better feeding response and more nutrition.
