If you mean a wild frog that will stay living outside, then don't feed it, it will find food itself. (though i guess you could try to feed it if you want). If you mean bring it inside as a pet, this will be stressful and probably kill it unless you bring it in when it is young. You can buy crickets and mealworms at many pet stores. Or you can look under rocks and things for worms, pill bugs, and small beetles. amphibians caught in the wild where there is a winter season must get a hibernation period in or it wont survive and will go crazy

What do you feed a wild baby baby frog?

Frogs will only eat live food, it must be moving before they see it as food. Small ants or fruit flies are good for tiny frogs, when they are slightly bigger they can be feed meal worms purchased from a local pet store. If you have a big frog, then feed it superworms, mealworms, large crickets, and waxworms from a pet store, because those are pretty big. Medium sized frogs should have medium sized crickets and mealworms. Tiny frogs can have fruit flies and small ants. ALWAYS get your frog's food from a pet store, even if you have a wild one, because wild bugs could have diseases, and kill your frog.


What could you catch in your backyard that you could feed your pet frog?

If your frog is wild-caught or lives in your pond, then yes. However, if you bought your frog from a pet shop it is likely that he/she was bred in captivity and you shouldn't feed him/her wild insects. There are several reasons for this, but the main one is that in the wild, frogs are immune to some diseases that insects carry, whereas a captive-bred frog will have eaten only healthy insects from the pet shop, as have its parents and sometimes even its grandparents. This is why you must first check before feeding your pet frog food from your garden. If you did find or buy a wild frog, then you could catch ants, fruitflies, houseflies, etc for him/her! =)
