non live foods for Mossy Gecko/Frog

[Bottomfeeder]

I love Frogs/Mossy Tailed Geckos and someday would like one but cant get around live foods. Are there reliable alternatives? Thanks

i'm 99% sure mossys are just like most other frogs, and will not accept dead food.

no way around it

Yep, some things just need to eat live food.

Frozen Worms wont work? I've seen idiots on youtube hook Bullfrogs on land with worm segments on hooks

 

[Vicious_Fish]

You really want to wiggle dead food in front of your frog/gecko? Plus, dead food lacks moisture and probably isn't as healthy as the live stuff.

well worms dont need much space and dont smell bad

 

[andyjs]

Why do you want to avoid live?

 

[rmorse]

Stick with live. It goes against their instincts to eat something that is dead.

There is no way around. If your using freze dried or canned first of your lossing alot of nutrients, no gutload and no garanté they have been raised in healty condicions. Much likely your animals wont even acept it. You absolutley need live crickets, mealworms, roaches,...etc in order to have one of thouse animals, plain simple as that
