Only if one eats them too often. The acronyn 'Dwaf' stands for 'Dangerous when eaten frequently', so it's easy to remember not to overindulge (unless you don't speak English). Also, where I live just south of the Arctic Circle, they are not readily available and very expensive, so we only have them as arare treat. Nanook

No. For one, you have harmful oils on your skin that would irritate and harm your frog. For another, you can very easily break their bones or kill them in your attempts to hold them. For another, they don't like being held, they're wild animals. They're much more fun to watch, anyways. Yes,you can. You just have to be very careful! I have some and it is very hard to hold them because they are most likely to jump out of your hand and start hopping away and if you don't put them back in time they will die. But, you really shouldn't hold them.
