Im good at identifying most herps, however, this one is a bit tricky. If there were dorsal lateral ridges, I couldn't see them. If you told me what state you were in, I could probably figure it out.

i also took a closer look for you and they do not have lateral dorsal folds on their sides so im leaning mor toward baby bulls now

It's deifnitly a bull frog or Green Frog, Im guessing Bull too. It doesnt matter much, as the care for both is identical (exept some bullfrogs need bigger enclosures).

Hmm...start out with insects such as crickets, mealworms, superworms, waxworms. cockroaches or any simular sized insects (its not a bad idea to feed local insect species to the frog if it was wild caught in your area). If it is a bull frog and grows to 5-6"+, then you can feed it small mice, but only every two weeks.
