I am really considering trying to rear wax worms in to wax moths. I don't know how much nutrition a wax moth would provide, but to hunt a flying insect would be very stimulating to tree frogs. There just aren't many if any flying insects that can be cultured (correct me if I am wrong here).

I'll look for my culture recipe
Stay tuned

Yes they do love them !
I pull a few legs off the moths and throw them in the cricket bowl. ( not fun )
When a cricket walks by the..... moth spins.
I do not let them 'fly' around the tree frog enclosures.
( actually they don't really fly very well---the moth spends most of its time climbing up and down the glass)
I have callridryas and moreletii---- they don't pay attention to what they are jumping into; beyond the moth.
They will injure themselves .................for sure.
