Striped Marsh Frog

[mrmikk]

Currently doing a study on numbers and types of amphibians in our area for Redlands Wildlife and am growing out some Striped Marsh Frog tadpoles, can anyone tell me what the juvenile frogs typically eat?

Many Thanks

They will eat hatchy / 3-5mm crickets with no problems.
Depending on the size of the crickets and frogs though.

They mainly eat insects and spiders, when they get bigger they will eat small frogs too. If using commercially bred food flies, crickets or roaches are fine.

Thanks guys. I actually thought the tadpoles were Eastern Sedge Frogs so was a bit surprised to see a little Stripey sitting in there.
