Can my adult eat tiny leeches? he is about 2 is inches long, and the leeches are about one centimeter, will they eat him?

I have never thought to try feeding leeches to a frog, so I guess I can't say for certain- but it seems very unlikely to me. Small crickets and dubia are probably better choices for food items.

I would just use worms personally, leeches don't seem too unsafe but they can still bite and have suction cups.
