    Exclamation Underweight 6 Month old Frog?

    I have a 6 month old Strawberry Albino PacMan frog, the first few weeks I got him he didn't eat much, but over the month he has had a big appetite. But he only weights 16g, is this a problem? What should I do to chunk him up?

    High calorie foods like fuzzy mice and pacman frog food.

    Small sized, hairless pinkies wearing around 2-3g each would be okay? It's like $6 for maybe around 20-30 pinkies, and I can only feed Magic one once a month correct? I just need to find something with a less amount of pinkies..

    Once a month? At 6 months old? You can feed nice more than once a month. Especially if you are worried about body weight.
    At that age and size, and worried about weight, keep temps around 80-82 and feed every three or four days.
    I didn't say pinkies I said fuzzies.. If you use pinkies dip the rump in calcium with d3.

    Ahh, I'm very sorry. Thank you for your reply, ordering the food now Magics tank temperature is always around 80 degrees, his humidity ranges from 70 degrees to 80 degrees but it kinda worries me because his tank has a blueish whitish mold growing but it's safe from what i've read.

    You'll want to remove the moldy substrate
