I thought I'd share a couple of feeding videos I've done with one of my fantasy frogs.
Video of him eating waxworms and crickets (11/17)
This frog has had a staple diet of almost 100% crickets, until a few days ago. I may have finally figured out a way to convert him to eating worms!
Video of him eating a worm (11/24 -- this evening) -- with narration/sound -- and a little nutty twist at the end
Enjoy
Well..... He looks very proficient at it ! He is very calm.
I have never owned a Pac.
But this must be easier on their digestive tract?
Can you alternate, so there is feeder variety?

Great vids, mine loves crickets so much I drop them in front of her and she gets them before they hit the floor !
Lol! Thanks Lynn
Yes you can alternate between foods so basically you have 2 staples. I find that this helps if you run out of their main staple. Offering treats between meals is also good. Like pinky mice, Hornworms, Silkworms, Roaches, and Pacman Food. I personally don't like the idea of acman Food as a staple, but it can be used in that way. I just dont feel its good for them in large doses. It is convienient though.
Not sure why you can't see them, but here's direct links to the YouTube videos:

This frog is my calmest pacman frog. I've tried worms before when he was housed on coco-fiber (now on foam), but he showed no interest. He loves his crickets, though. I feed nightcrawlers as a staple to my pacman frogs because they are the much more nutritious than crickets. He is small, and at least 6 months old, and I attribute his slow (probably stunted) growth and small size to his mostly cricket diet. In the past few days, with a total of eating 5 - 7 worms, I believe he's grown a bit (or at least fattened him up a bit). I try to feed some pacman food as well for variety, but some of mine won't eat it, including him. I found out I can't keep Dubia roaches where I live, so I can't use them as a feeder.
