Ed, you're no better than that jackass kid who posted videos of his tegu "fighting" a rat. I've got no problem with feeding any given species to another IF- and this is the important part- it's the best possible choice as a prey species. The same goes for feeding live prey items, no objections when it's necessary but with a pyxie it simply isn't required nutritionally and it certainly it's required that a live python be tossed in as a prey item to battle it out so you can get your rocks off over the slow death of one animal to another.

Negligent ignorant crap. I'll leave you to figure out if I'm talking about the photos, the practice or you personally.
Heres some feeding tips for you from a guy that has kept thousands of these frogs.

A staple diet of crickets, roaches and other insects make up the majority of a Giant African Pyxies diet. an ocassional lizard, rodent and a snake is part of a varied and healthy diet. maybe every 4-6 weeks is best with food items like rodents,snake or lizard. these are big frogs that eat alot of food.

Seamus, I would like to offer you any advice on these giant frogs that could help you understand them better.

btw, how many pyxies do you presently keep?
