No. For one, you have harmful oils on your skin that would irritate and harm your frog. For another, you can very easily break their bones or kill them in your attempts to hold them. For another, they don't like being held, they're wild animals. They're much more fun to watch, anyways. Yes,you can. You just have to be very careful! I have some and it is very hard to hold them because they are most likely to jump out of your hand and start hopping away and if you don't put them back in time they will die. But, you really shouldn't hold them.

∙ 10y agoAFDs usually live for around three years, which is pretty good in the aquatics world, but when you take them out of the water, they have about fifteen minutes before they dry out and die. Also, they may carry diseases so it's not exactly smart to handle themm alot. Moving them is ok once in a while but don't like pick them up and walk around.
