    My Whites Tree Frog loves Wax Moths and Large Crickets. That's her main food because that's what she likes the most. Sometimes she eats Butterworms.

    My American Toads & Southeastern Five Lined Skinks love Crickets, Earthworms and Waxworms.

    My clawed frogs get a variety diet. Here goes the list.
    -Live foods: Night Crawlers, Wax Worms, Butter Worms, Crickets, Horned Worms, Flies, Fly Larva, Mealworms (Occasionally not often.)
    -Frozen Foods: Blood Worms, Shrimp (Mysis and River), Plankton, Tubifex worms. (Carnivorous Fish Foods)
    -Freeze Dried: Crickets, Silk Worm Pupa (Rare), Wax Worms, Soldier Fly Larva, Sardines, Shrimp, Mealworms (Occasionally not often) * All freeze Dried Foods are cut up smaller pieces and rehydrated before feeding.
    -Pellet Foods: Xenopus Laevis Frog Floating/Sinking Pellets. Rare Occasion when I run out of xenopus pellets they get reptomin sticks.
    - Other Misc. Fish food, flakes and pellets. No I don't purposely feed them fish food they just happen to eat them because they are housed I'm my fish tank. So they eat the scraps that the fish don't get. * My frogs don't eat live fish not sure why but they never have.*

    my FBT tank loves crickets so much. just today i found an 'escapee' in the house. a recently dead cricket on my floor. still soft and edible but not moving.

    i pick it up with my tongs. drop it amongst the frogs.

    as soon as it hits the ground, a frog from about eight inches away makes a precision jump and in the blink of an eye, the cricket is, head first, half way down the frog's throat.

    none of the frogs nearer by had a chance. it seems like there is always one on a hair trigger ready to pounce. they spend their life like that.

    i love it when two of them manage to get a hold of the same cricket. then we get a violent wrestling match at the expense of the cricket. frog legs go in every direction.

    My PacMan frog's Diet is comprised of 3 items only : Horn worms, Nightcrawlers, and Dubia roaches. All fed with tongs.
    Crickets stink and have a foul odor, and they are just to fast and end up running all over the enclosure.

    Crickets are the most common frog food, it is important to offer your frog a varied diet, including grasshoppers, locusts, mealworms, and, for some larger species, small mice.
