    Since you are so attached to this frog and can commit to long term care I would advise you to take him home. My only advice is to capture him in a glass or plastic jar with damp moss inside, don't use your hands (for his health, not yours). This is how many frog researchers and keepers got their start. I usually tell folks that captive aniamls from a breeders are best; but be prepared to get rid of any parasites he will have. This does not mean to always go out and capture wild critters on an impulse. And I know there will be negative comments to this advice.

    How do your hands harm them?
    I have a ten gallon glass tank with screen lid, will this work and what lights do I need?
    I have crickets but I'd like to give wild caught choices. Do daddy long legs hurt? I see frogs eat those alot. What can be fed?
