If you freeze them they die soon. but i prefer cooking them first for a few seconds. and than freeze them until i need them. ;)

But some ants only eat hunted insects, no dead ones. So you have to feed them alive insects.

But when you dont want to kill them on your own, cook or freeze them you have to use the ant protein jelly from Antstore or a near pet shop....thats the two things you could do.....

Thats nature. When i see some dokus thats brutal when some lions lacerate their loot. And in the microkosmos its the same. In the nature a dozen ants kill a spider and eat it alive....

But its okay when someone could not kill animals/insects. There is the way with the jelly for them ;)

But for me personally its no problem to put a living insect in my basin. I enjoy watching them by hunting.
