    Default Pacman won't eat(no impaction visible)

    Pacman has been acting too shy and scared, he's had a mouse 5 months ago, I'm doing just rodents because takes me 30 minutes for me to feed him like 2-3 worms. He's just got out but again he won't take the mouse and hes' back under. No stool for like 6 months but no impaction visible on his body and he's still fat. Any suggestions? He's been acting too scared to eat it seems ever since I got him out for a soak, he's never been the same. I thought time would make them more comfortable but he's like almost 2 years old and he's more shy now then he was when he was a baby pacman.

    Only rodents? You do know they aren't supposed to really have them, that's why they're only given as a treat once every couple months, right? Maybe he's tired of his food fighting back, crickets are easily eaten and don't fight like a mouse does. Some pacs don't like worms, have you tried any other more healthy diets? Does he have hiding places? is the temp/humidity right?

    Sorry about that temp is high 70s, humidity 80. He gets earthworms usually but it would take me like 30-45 minutes to feed him like 1- 3 worms, and the only way he eats them is if they are tong fed, if I leave them on the substrate he never goes for them and they dig in the soil. Hiding place, I mean that's all he does is hide in the substrate, the substrate is the hiding place, I put once a hut, and he avoided it, seemed like he was scared to go inside it.

    The rodent I feed are dead and frozen, and this is because feeding worms is a pain in the ***, crickets he doesn't even eat and since he only gets tong fed, if one escapes they'll go after him I feel and he'd never go and try to eat them.

    Mice is not your answer . Get some spearing from your fish vendor and give it to him. Mine eat large minnows 4 inches and they love them I keep them in freezer and thow them and they love them. But how big is your pac?

    My pac is 4 inches it's a female I actually have a picture of her here in this forum, I'll try those fish and see how he takes them, he's under now though so might be another couple of months I don't know.
