This is out frog "Keyhole" ( note mark on back" and wondering, does "Skinny" look skinny for a frog? Do any of you feed your frogs? I threw some dried meal worms at him, one sat on gist head until he got back into the water!! Lol

I knew of someone that would buy live crickets at the pet store and feed then to her frogs. Her frogs were quite tame. :)

I think Keyhole looks fine but nothing wrong w/feeding him if you like. Mine all jump and hide when I come near the pond.

As a general rule, amphibians [and reptiles] are attracted by movement, which means they like their food still living, LOL! But, yes, I am guilty of feeding my frogs. I've offered them dried meal worms, but those were ignored. Put a live mealworm down and it's instant history for that guy! Amazing how fast frogs [and toads and lizards] grab their food.

No idea...keyhole probably came with the fish. The guy I got them from three in a couple of frogs...but we have seen 4 at a time ??? Also a couple of tadpoles but too soon for them to be frogs I think.

This is what I did to feed my frogs... I got a hotdog and cut it into thin strips, a julienne tool works best. Then I'd get a long, slim stick and drape the "hot dog worms" over the end of the stick and dangled it in front of the frog. The frogs ate it every time. And yes, I was called crazy by everyone who saw me do this!

I think they both look fine! I've heard of big bullfrogs eating fish and even birds! So watch out for when they get bigger. @sissy here relocates them when she catches them.

No they cant eat Koi... Koi may eat them. The bigger the frog, the more likely he wil eat a goldfish. Bullfrogs are the ones known to do it.
