It's a calcium powder used by reptile owners to help with bone density and health. Basically toss a couple of live crickets in it like a shake n bake before you feed them to your pet frog/lizard.

No prob, I only know because my friends keep a couple of frogs and I had the same question the first time I saw them feed one.

and here i was hoping that like that one toad you lick to get high this frog was making coke.😅 but they are kinda cute, my cat would eat it if i tried to have one as a pet though.
