I no longer keep WTF I did over 20 years ago, but still keep other anurans. and have done since I was 8 yrs old, i'm now 53.........
I wouldn't use the brandling or tiger worms found in compost heaps,or at least they are hear in the UK they are quite acidic and don't smell very pleasant, not many amphibians will eat them. Dig a piece of ground over and collect some worms that way, or put damp cardboard/carpet on wet ground and keep it damp and see what turns up.
