Pacman food?

[perfectlypierced]

I just bought the larger bag for my little frogger. Now I patiently wait for it to ship from Japan. *Sits and waits by mailbox*

you know what's funny, apparently cats love pacman food too i made a few balls yesterday, gave one to a frog and one of my cats stole the other one and ate

Well I guess since its mostly fish-based it would make sense for the kitties to like it.

Hi: I just got two of the 4 oz. pacs in the mail and the return address was Anaheim, CA.....The postage was $ 3.14..I'm in Fort Smith, Akansas, which is right on the border of Oklahoma, so it's not really all that far...I recall one forumite saying it was going to cost $15.00 to ship to Cananda?......I'd like to know WHY?
Anyway, the food came in about 10 days.

Good luck, I'm still trying to find data on the long term effects of the food.

Maybe thats where it was sent from for customs? As a Canadian I'm used to being "dinged" with extra shipping fees. It is $15 for shipping.

Hey, good point!...........I looked on the envelop and didn't see anything to indicate Japan as the origin, but then maybe it came in a box or something.....The bottom line is as long as it's delivered in a timely matter, THAT'S what counts.....OUCH!, that $ 15.00 does hurt!.....

Nuance Herptile Farm in Japan concocted this food, and aside from feeding Medaka (japanese killifish) to their Cornutas and picky eaters, they maintain all of their frogs on this food exclusively and Nuance has been successfully breeding these frogs for a very long time. Other than that, you aren't going to find much information on the long term health affects it has on the frogs due to the fact that it has not been widely available for very long.

THANKS!.....Now that's interesting!....Especially about using it for a very long time....I don't know how long a "very long time" is, but I would think it's long enought to know if the food is safe to use....And having a breeder use it in my opinion, added to the creditabiltiy of the food.
Yes, I've been wondering about just how long that food has been available.
Ok, gotta get off of this site, the IT nazi is going to slam me!

I'm not sure of the long term effects, but my young male African bullfrog has been growing like a weed and seems very healthy so far, and this food is a staple for him. So I can say that short term the food seems ok so far...

Hi Bruce: I've been feeding an African Bull Frog and a pacman exclusively on this food and they seem to be nice and plump not to mention growing like a weed.

I got the food in the mail this week and tonight was the first feeding. After some coaxing, Slimer ate! This stuff is really cool.

Well good going.....I've got a pixie and a pac that both inhale this stuff....but the other pacmans just DON'T want to be bothered with it.....I've tried some coaxing, maybe a minute or so? But still they won't even try...How long did you coax yours?


Thanks

Maybe a minute or two. I wiggled and kinda made him/ her bite and viola! It was in Slimer's mouth.
