Feeding your horned frog mice and fish is perfectly fine. Yes thats right, you can feed mice and fish. I can hardly get my frog to eat bugs, he will occasionally take crickets and superworms, but usually just lets them pass by. I feed my frog an adult mouse every 2 or 3 weeks. When people say "Mice are too fatty" they don't realize that crickets, mealworms, and waxworms are fatty too. The problem with feeding mice is that it takes the frog longer to digest all the bones and organs and stuff in a mouse than it does to digest a soft bodied insect. So.....you just have to space the feeding out more, so a mouse every 2 weeks or so will keep your frog healthy and not obese or blinded by lipidosis >.



My frog eating a mouse =P
