Is it safe to feed a frog to a pacman frog I know it is not humane but can you without something happening.

i have heard of someone on here using feeder frogs, not something thats common where i stay (uk) infact never heard of anyone doing it, in the wild frogs make up a large part of horned frogs diet, in captivity tho i personally wouldnt bother due to the hassle of rearing live frogs as food compared to other feeders. also i would be worried about parasites etc if using wild caught frogs as feeders

not saying it shouldnt be done but personally i stick with insect feeders from a reliable source or live bearers (fish) i have raised myself and know are healthy

as for it being inhumane, what makes using a frog as a feeder less humane than insects, fish and mice etc, they are all living creatures

That is very good point.
