I met this tree frog as a tadpole around July 28th. After about two months, it is now hopping around happily, but it is only the size of a 1 yen coin and cannot eat very large food. Therefore, it is necessary to feed it small food. When it first comes ashore, it can only eat small food such as aphids, and it is difficult to find aphids every day. After about a month, it will be able to eat slightly larger food. Some individuals can also eat small caterpillars, and the variety of food will gradually increase. At this time of year, it can also eat the larvae of weevils? that sometimes live in acorns. We want to secure as much natural food as possible. (Drosophila costs 10 yen each... lol) And in the future, it would be reassuring if it could eat artificial food, such as dried bloodworms, by hand. It will save you the trouble of going outside to look for food. In winter, it will be difficult to secure insects, so let's prepare so that it will gradually get used to it. This is how I feed my little frogs. I hope this helps.
