So i've had my pac-man frog luffy for about 2 month's i got him from josh's frogs and he's an amazing frog, he's been eating great but he hasn't pooped in about a week in a half i took him to the vet but they dont know anything. Im starting to get really worried i have him on moist paper towels to see if he poops but nothing i feed him nightcrawlers and dusted crickets and i also got the vet to X-Ray him and there was no impaction. And also i just found a tiny dot that looked like blood were his butt was i dont know if it could be a prolapsed cloaca or what. PLEASE HELP!!!!
If he is still acting normal and eating, I would worry less. I would suggest a gentle, just warm enough, soak. See if anything develops.
But, again, if he is acting ok. Then just observe.
If your pacman is pooping every 4-6 weeks, that's normal. Sometimes they might poop earlier sometimes they might take a bit longer, but as long as your frog doesn't appear bloated, your pacman shouldn't be impacted.
I usually take my pacman out and put him in a warm soak every month and leave him there for about an hour and he usually poops, either in the water or when I take him out. The movement and handling usually gets them to poop.
thank you guys so much ive been stressing myself out about it
What is the temperature in the enclosure? Increasing the temperature a little can help. I had a similar issue with my pac man but when I raised the temp it got right back on track.
Nick hit the nail on the head. It's about that warmth. Water helps too but I would raise the temps to prevent it from happening again.
