What do you feed a pet frog?
During metamorphosis, the vegetable-processing gut of the tadpole transforms into the short, active gut of the carnivore (frogs eat insects.) The tadpole mouthparts for rasping algae also disappear. For up to a week, the new frog has a mouth and gut that do not function. During this time, the frog lives off its tail, which is being reabsorbed, and its body fat reserves, and will refuse the food it ate as a tadpole and the sort of food it might eat as a young frog. When it is a young frog, it will eat small invertebrates of any kind. E.g. small flies, dragonflies, grasshoppers etc. Do not try to feed a frog slugs, snails or worms. If you are raising tadpoles and want to keep the young frogs for a while (such as I did) you can trap fruit flies if the climate is relatively warm. Ask your greengrocer for a polystyrene broccoli box. Wash it out well and dry it. Turn it upside down so that the opening is touching the ground. Cut a small hole in the side, like a mouse-hole. This is where the flies will enter. Cut another hole on the bottom of the box which now faces upwards and fit a jar into it. Place some bait such as tinned pineapple on a plate underneath the upturned box. Fruit flies will enter through the hole. When you tap the sides of the box, they will fly off the fruit, panic and enter the jar. Put your hand over the jar mouth and transfer the flies to the baby frogs' enclosure.

How do you raise fruit flies?
All you have to do to raise fruit flies is put some fruit in a jar with no lid. Grapes with no skin or bananas work well. When there are several flies in the jar, put a paper towel over it and rubber band. Put more banana in every week or so. This works best in summer or whenever it is above 60 degrees in the day for more than a week. Of course, you can also buy a kit from the internet.

How can you save a praying mantis from certain death?
Baby praying mantises only eat very small insects like aphids and fruit flies, which are difficult to catch. I found that if I take a small jar with a lid and punch a hole in the top (1/2" in diameter) and put a banana peel or other fruit waste inside, the fruit flies will naturally be drawn to it and once they enter, they can't find their way out. it is because flies lay their eggs on the fruit and when they hatch they dont know how to escape. I then remove the lid while putting the jar in the mantises' habitat.Baby mantises can eat several fruit flies per day.
