I feed that to my frogs and it has bulked them up pretty fast (twice the size in a month) so I'd say no... I compared it to my retpomin and it is like feeding your turtle fish food with krill.

Compared to Regular size Reptomin,

Min. Crude Protein 42.5%
Min. Crude Fat 8.5%
Max. Crude Fiber 2.0%
Max. Moisture 8.0%
Min. Phosphorous 1.8%
Min. Calcium 2.0%

It looks like the frog bites Don't have the needed calcium, lacks phosphorous, less protein, Almost double the fat, and double the moisture. They look to be too fatty and not having enough calcium/nutrition value to be fed regularly. As a treat once every 2 weeks or so, in a proper diet, I don't see a problem with them. Just don't make them a staple.
