   My friend has a toad and they eat lots of things. Yes they go for instects. But think about it. What is that – it is meat. So they do like meat and other things.

   I don’t know exactly what they can and can’t but I don’t think there is any major rule that something like a peice of a sandwich will kill them.

   Hope you get some good answers.

   This is a particular frog…research the type you have to get full details. From the looks of it, they like shrimp, but (LOL) brine and fish (LOL) but very very tiny ones!

   Due to their small size, they have a lower propensity to eat small fish in their tank. Like the Xenopus species, they are fully aquatic. Unlike the African clawed frogs, they have obvious webbing between their front toes and small eyes. They prefer to eat small live foods by scent. African dwarf frogs will also eat frozen (or live) bloodworms, brine shrimp, and daphnia. While some people report them eating fish food flakes, others say that happens rarely. In tanks with fish, the frogs can be given sinking fish foods to eat. Some may nibble algae- and plant-based foods, more luck might be had with meat-based sinking foods like shrimp pellets. Their preferred temperature is about 77 degrees F with a pH of 7.2 to 7.6. For more information on these neat frogs, visit the web sites under the links section.

   SOMETIMES you can get a frog or toad to eat a bit of meat (cooked chicken, organ meat, etc.) that is being dangled in the tank.

   Not a great diet, however.
