BG knows what he's talking about. He is very experienced with Pacmans. If your frog doesn't. Start eating regularly it may cause serious health issues. Vitamin deficiency and calcium deficiency causing metabolic bone desease. Your frog may waste away and die. You may have to force feed if your frog doesn't eat soon.
When he gets real skinny where you can see his thigh bones, then you have to force feed him with a pinky injected with liquid calcium/vitamins. They are made from flukers at petco for 7.99 each. The syringe ,you can get at drug store or some one with diabetes. That should be after 7 days not eating. Keep an eye on him. You have to get reed of the light. Put him in a small grow out container.
It'd be an awesome setup for something bigger but not a pac...
It's a super pretty frog by the way!
Love the green :]
I had him in a shoe-box sized tupper-ware before, and he was still buried, and not eating.
I had to do the same for my Pac Grif. My frog fell ill and didn't eat. I had to force feed everyday for 2 months. I finally pulled my Pac through and saved its life. It eats and eats and poops and eats Lol! Trust me the not waiting to fix a problem and not waiting to long before taking action and force feeding your frog is key to its survival if it stops eating. Both mine and BG's methods worked my frog just took a lot longer to recover from what was ailing him/her. Take the advice.
You are getting great advice from people with experience. You should listen to it and use it.
That enclosure is way too large for a baby Pac, even a little large for an adult. They are nocturnal....they will be active (as active as these frogs ever get anyway) during the night and should be fed then.
They need warmth ...... 80 to 86 degrees F during the day (no lights required) and 76 to 80 degrees at night with a humidity range of 60% to 80% at all times. A UTH is recommended for a heat source.
Some of us keep & some of us also breed them.
I am not disputing or rejecting anyones advice. I greatly appreciate it! I was just letting you know what I have done...
How do I go about force feeding?
My baby's home.
