What's the normal weight of a one year old female,male cranwelli. Whats the normal weight of a male, female ornate pacman. Does any one keep records on there packman frogs weight. How heavy are your frogs?
Hmmm...maybe everyone should take out their wife's/mom's kitchen cooking scale and lets all weigh our frogs.![]()
I've never weighed a pacman. I have weed Pyxies though. My male is around 2 pounds (1 kg) unless I give him a big feed.

I got a scale once I get home I'm going to weight them, theyallways weigh geckos
My frog isn't healthy but he weighs about 20 grams or .8 oz.
I did weight my pacman when I got it, 9grams and about the size of a dime. I don't have my scale now but it would be nice to know the weight now.
[Is that him on your avatar hot looking pacmanQUOTE=demeteraurion;73609]At least 6 months or a bit more =x He has been sick/not eating but I've got a formula that he eats and I hope it helps him.[/QUOTE]
Now you guys have got me curious about how much my BIG girl weighs! The only weight I am sure of is my large male Woodhouse's toad, who is approximately 120 grams unfed (which is a whopper of a male Woodhouse's toad!). My male ornate is considerably heavier, I'd guess about 200 grams or so. I'm guessing my big female Cranwell's is probably at least twice that, say 400+ grams - she's MUCH MUCH bigger. These are just educated guesses - I'll have to get the "ground truth" now...
Please forgive/ignore the following preachy comment...
The weight of a frog can be a useful indicator of health (growing, recovering from illness, thriving, etc.), and of course, knowing the weight can be essential for proper dosing of meds. With horned frogs, it's always tempting to over-feed them and produce a real monster, but this isn't the best thing for them... Personally, I try to resist the temptation and not over-feed my frogs, so my guys are not obese. Of course, this makes cleaning the cages loads of fun, since the horned frogs are always hungry and trying to eat my hand...
My C.cranwelli Grif weighs around 86 grams. He is alittle over I've had him alittle over 7 months and he's 3 to 3 1/4 inches long.
