What to feed American Toads?

[Froog]

Crickets is what they will most likely eat. Or sometimes (if you live in the mountains or somewhere with trees) they will eat silk worms.

I'm new here and have had every pet under the sun except a frog. So now I have a Mongolian Toad. I think meal worms for me are the easiest as I had them years ago for many other fish and lizards. You can raise them easily and when they turn into larva and beetles you can still continue to feed to your frog. For me here in China I can easily buy meal worms but to find a place which sells crickets is a little harder. Also if you try and keep them for longer periods of time you might have some escaping and chirping in your home, h ah aha. Crickets would be best but I guess it depends on whether you can easily get them and care for them.
