Can i feed my bearded dragon a frog

[patrickmb21]

i found a small brown frog. Is it safe to feed him to my dragon.

I wouldn't suggest it, personally.Since it's wild caught,it probably has a ton of internal parasites.On top of that,if it's possibly a toad,it would be fatal to your beardie.

There was a post on here not to long ago about a dragon who died by eating a frog some kids fed him. I wouldn't do it.

toads secret a fluid from their skin that is fatal for beardies not to mention the spine and other bones in the frog/toad can pose a choking hazard and impaction hazard...I wouldnt do it...two people have lost beardies to frog/toad feeding..one was accidental when the beardie lunged at a toad some kids were playing with..the other someone tossed a frog/toad into a viv and the beardie ate it and succumbed to it..same with fireflies..they are deadly to beardies
