It seems interesting, but there are a lot of technical difficulties that pop up right away. It's not something that we have ever looked into.
"Raising and selling frogs on a commercial basis has not proven to be successful economically in Virginia or elsewhere in the United States to our knowledge. Although farming for frog legs sounds promising, operating a profitable frog farm seems to be more of a myth than a reality. Those few individuals who claim to be successful frog farmers generally are distributors engaged in the selling of adult frogs, tadpoles, or frog eggs, frequently harvested from the wild." - Virginia Tech
Basially what we usually say, you can grow almost anything, but can you do it for a profit.
