Over eating

[katon]

When I feed my bullfrog he seems to be a bottomless pit. Though I want to feed him until he's full I'm worried about over feeding him.

They normally stop when they're full, but some of the babies will try to keep eating. Just try and provide a set number of feeders each feeding and increase the amount accordingly as he/she grows.

With that said I need to ask how big your frog is?

About 4.5 to 5 inches

What are you feeding him, how much, and how often?

About two night crawler cans every two nights think there is 19 in each. I think he's still wanting to eat even after that because he's tracking my hank movements out side of the cage. Few days ago I opened the top and he seen the tongs and jumped out of the aquarium and on to the floor. All carpet but made me jump when he did it

He is haveing a large growth period. He will seem to never be full and what you are giving him is plenty. You could feed him every other day, but would need to reduce the amount. 40 night crawlers in a single feeding is a lot and I would not give him more than that.
