Tadpoles and other smaller frogs.
When they mature, they do the same, plus flies and small beetles.

General Information on Raising Frogs

http://home.nc.rr.com/marksjungle/advice.html

HANDLING
When raising frogs, there are a handful of things to check and do. Before and After you handle a frog, always wash your hands with soap. Frogs "drink" through their skin. This means, if you have dirt on your hands, or even the natural oils on your hands, then the frog's skin's pores will clog and it can't drink. Plus, they have sensitive skin and rough or dirty hands can damage it. In addition, you don't want to give them any germs to contend with-so, wash your hands before you handle them. You wash your hands after you handle them since you don't want any of their natural irritants or germs going with you.
FEEDING
Frogs only eat things that move. This means you can't be to squeamish. They want LIVE insects. The best choices are crickets, wax worms, cockroaches, moths, and other insects. Don't test your frog with insects you know to be poisonous. You never know what they might mistake one for. Their food must be moving for them to see it. Frogs can eat some large things, but, a good rule of thumb is: if it is smaller than them, they can probably eat it. Don't push this though, they are more likely to eat a lot of little things, over one big thing. Crickets are probably the easiest critters to get and about the most nutritious.
CAGE
All frogs can not go long with out water. This means, make sure you have a water dish or a small pond in the cage with them that always has a good amount of clean and chlorine free water. To dechlorinate tap water, you can buy special drops at your pet store, or, put it in a bucket and let it sit for a couple hours. Of coarse you can just buy distilled water form the store. Some people fancy up their cage with live or fake plants. Others will put waterfalls, and some even divide the cage so it is half land, half water. What ever you do is fine, so as long as you keep it clean. If you put the cage near a window, make sure it has leafy plants for shade, frogs do not do well in direct sunlight unless they are in water. Another problem that may occur from too much dirrect sunlight is the developement of mildew in the cage.
The best type of lid for the cage is a screen lid. It lets fresh air go in and keeps the humidity controlled. A glass lid + lots of water + any heat = a lot of moisture that gets so ridiculous you have to wipe the glass constantly just to see inside. I hope this information has been helpful.

Baby Froggies
Baby frogs eat living critters which makes them hard to feed. I discovered that the most plentiful critter that they could eat was termites. You can find termites in any old log sitting on the ground outside. They are small and white and come in different forms due to their role in their society. If you put a log in a plastic container and pry it apart with a hammer and screw driver, you may find hundreds. If even termites are too large for your baby frogs, you may have to order pin head crickets from a live insect distributor. They are extremely tiny and most any baby frog can gobble up 4 of them at a time.
Tadpoles
Taking care of tadpoles is a lot like taking care of fish. You can feed tadpoles fish food or you can get a stick from some nearby wetland and they will suck the algea right off it. You should not handle tadpoles. They should be given a shallow pool. It should range in depth from about two inches to zero inches in water depth. You can create this grade by pouring sand into on side of a fish tank or some other container and flatten it down to a smooth beach. Then carefully pour water in so as to not disrupt the beach. This way they can rest on the sand, swim around, or crawl out when they become frogs-make sure you have a lid by this time.
Gender
There are two ways you can tell a frog's gender. 1- females are generally larger than males. 2- get them wet (just a bit) and put one on top of the other. If the bottom one squawks, it is most likely a male (saying: hey get off) If it doesn't it could be a female. Of coarse you can't tell for sure, but this may give you a good idea. Try different combinations remembering that when they mate the males sit on top and the females go on bottom.


Frog Noises
Frogs respond to different things. One day you may be vacumming or playing the radio or a pot will fall on the floor and you'll hear them start squacking. Frogs make different noises. Some squack, some chirp, some croak, some whine, and some bark. It all depends on what type of frog you have.

Common Problems
1-Drowning Insects:
A very common and aggravating problem with raising frogs is the fact that insects lack the ability to avoid drowning in water. Yup, chances are, if you put in 6 of any insect, you will find 2-3 of them drowning in the water in no time. Well, I can't give you a miracle solution, because I don't have one, but you can try putting a rock in your water that is taller than the water level so the bugs can crawl out. Or maybe you prefer fishing them out with a stick. I have many treefrogs and they refuse to eat things in the water, but my water frogs, "green frogs" don't seem to mind. The best chance you have is to make some sort of ledge the insects can get onto.
