I dumped the contents in a freezer bag and froze it. Now when i feed the more finicky hogs, I rust rub the thawed pink on the frozen salmon and it has worked for every baby that is a reluctant feeder. You can buy a frog from the petshop. I have used tree frogs in the past.
I will definitely try the canned salmon method. Can it really be any type of toad/frog? I ask because I have a friend that has a Pacman that I could use to quickly scent (If it doesn't try to eat the pinky itself).
