Pixie passed way !

Very sorry about Pixie, froghub. I'm glad your new frog is doing well.
I have a dubia colony, and can attest to them being a good feeder. They are easy to raise and have no noticable smell, and grow large enough to be significant morsels for large frogs like a Pacman or an African Bullfrog. They are not perfect however. They are quick to burrow and take a while to get started, but there are ways to work around these issues. Some people just crush the dubia's head before feeding. Since the frog eats from tongs you can just give feed them that way and avoid them burrowing altogether. To get the colony going relatively quick you have to buy new adults every so often for a while after starting it. Once they get going there's tons though.
I havent got a pacman right now, but I do have an African Bullfrog. He gets plenty of roaches, near adult roaches fill him up pretty fast. That's one great thing about Dubias, they start out small enough to feed to smaller frogs, then grow big enough to be a good size for a huge frog.

Thanks Bryce, thanks Cory
I'll get a container and some egg crates i guess ahahah, not sure if my girlfriend will be happy having dubias arround but we'll see.
News guy borrows at night, gets out at morning like a clock
Today i did not feed him, he did not poop, i'll try to feed him tomorrow, if no poop i'll give him a honey bath if thats sound good?
About the threat section, hornworms are not easy to get in France. What other threats may i give him?
And do you believe he has the size for a pinkie?? Should i give it alive or frozen?? He's about 1.9inches already, if not pinkie i shall get some dubias!
I love to see this guy eating ahahah.
He was outside today, i went changing the water and spray him since i saw substrat was dry, he borrowed a little and stayed there ahaha so cool, he wasnt too stressed he just hide like saying you can't see me this way.
They're rather smart.
So about the uvb, i've a 1,5w led which is soft, but i was thinking of adding a 13w 2.0 UVB lamp to the setup. Like 2h a day only. Would that be good for the frog?
Thanks gentlemen

Wax worms and silk worms are good alternatives to hornworms for treats. They're high in fat just like hornworms, though. Some people give them a live pinkie or two before feeding frozen so they recognize the shape. Personally I just feed my frogs live pinkies.

If you have the uvb light inside the enclosure it may be good enough but if it’s on top you will at least a 5.0, the screen filters out half so the one you have would really be doing anything. And all though silkworms are high in fat they are not as bad waxworms and have way more protein so they are a better treat. If you can get Phoenix worms they are also a really good treat due to they have a lot of protein also.

Alright guys thanks!
Will take a look, what are the benefits of the UVB anyway? Since we already give them D3.
I've got the repashy and i tried to give him some crickets today, no joy.
Although he's round i'm not too worried, he has eaten well.
So he hate 3 crickets first day, two big crickets second day, day off, tried today no joy, did make him a honey bath yesterday and today, no poop, he seems stressed a bit. He tries to get away from the bath and he directly burrows when out.
Lets give him today off and see if he poops
