Maybe it needs more time to adjust, try it in a cage by itself for awhile to get used to a cage then transfer him after a change. This might work. Hope I helped.

Just think of it this way, a giant hand comes down and takes you away to some place thats unknown to you and offering you stuff you've never smelled or even seen before. You don't eat it because you don't know what it is first of all and you're extremely scared. You don't know whats going to become of you, if you're gonna die or what.

Sounds pretty scarey for them. I suggest you let them go. Espcially if it won't eat.

How about letting the frog go? You caught a wild animal - not a pet store bred amphibian.

You're more likely to kill it if you keep it - it obviously isn't doing well.

Your bullfrog (and I use the term "your" loosely) is a wild animal that you have captured. Why do you think it won't eat? It is scared, trapped, and stressed out! Please release it back where you found it!

reptiles/amphibians caught in the wild, esspecilly grown ones, generally die from shock. they need special bacteria for their systems to work correctly, certain conditions to stay healthy, they will need to hibernate(won't be able to in the house) and so forth.
if you love it, let it go back to the wild!

maybe you should contact your local states game and fish? they might be able to assist you. or put you in jail since its illegal in most states to capture wild animals
