Not eating much

[Ribbits]

I have a full grown albino pacman about 4 inches across. I have had him for about two years (he was pretty big when I got him). I keep his tank appropriately humid, his temp is measured in two places in the tank and is between 80-84 in the day and 78-79 at night. Lately he has not been burrowing much and does not have much of an appetite. He has not eaten once in the past 12 days. He goes through periods of less appetite and eats as much as 3 nightcrawlers every other day. I pretty much only feed him nightcrawlers. His previous owner said he has had pacmans that did not eat for several months at a time before, but it seems concerning to me. Any advice is appreciated, I am also awaiting a call back from the vet.

How wet is the substrate? They wont burrow in overly saturated muddy substrate. They also do go through periods of reduced appetite. As they get older and more mature they will only eat enough to sustain themselves unless conditioned for breeding.

It is moist, but not wet. I give it one or two good sprayings a day as it is pretty dry here in colorado during the winter. Does not eating for almost two weeks or longer seem normal? I think he has gone a week before. I was thinking about offering him a thawed pinky for some change in diet.

They do get bored with food items sometimes. Offering a variety is good. Try that out and see if he goes for it.

they have some periods of eating less, but usually for adult frog 2 weeks not eating is a bit too long under normal circumstances, how does he look? pictures would be helpful too.
how often do you completely change the substrate and spot clean?
have you done fecal test done?

I change the substrate about every month and a half. I have been doing some research and it seems as though this might be a bit long. What are signs of Toxic out sydrome that I should look for. I will take a pic when I get home.

Lethargy, bloating, listless, not eating. When was the last time the frog had a bowel movement?

Post some pics of the frog and its setup. Also answer these questions and repost the answers here. http://www.frogforum.net/pacman-frog...enclosure.html
