How often should I feed a tiny bullfrog?

Question

I work as a nanny and the little girl who I care for found a very small frog in her New York country house and decided to keep it as a pet. We were told it may be a bullfrog. He is very small, the size of a dart frog, and eats small grasshoppers. What I want to know if how many grasshoppers should we feed him in a day?

Answer 1

evry say and when he gets older evry other day

Answer 2

keeping wild caught frogs/toads is cruel here's why

ok some wild caught (WC) frogs just die im captivity no real reason it just happens add this the number that die from stress stress related disease then ur hitting quite a high number. also wc frogs have shortened lifespans stress related behavior disorders and tend to get ill easy. wc almost never have a good quality of life its cruel to the animal.

Frogs arent as easy to keep as some people think, i dunno who this culture has emerged that thinks frogs are as easy to keep as fish but there not they require specific care

finally disease and parasites are an issue. some frogs carry disease that can be passed onto humans but the main risk is to other frogs. when frogs are placed in a tank together disease can run writhe making both frogs ill and making for an unpleasant environment add this too there lowered immune system due to the stress of being snatched from the wild and u have a recipe for disaster

look this isnt a toy u clearly have no idea what your doing just release it do some research and if u still want a toad get one from a pet store
