A friend of mine and I were talking today, she got a Cornata Pacman Frog 3 weeks ago and ever since it's just been buried in the substrate. She's been finding the crickets that she's been putting in the cage for him in her house (not been eating). Both she and I are worried about the frog, she has his temperature set at 85 degrees (along with another frog that she got at the same time as the Cornata, he's been eating though). Could there be a problem with her frog? I'd of thought that he would have gotten use to his surroundings by now and would be above the substrate and eating the crickets she's offering. Her Cornata is a wild caught frog.
defiantly too much stress wild caught animal are hard to be housed. cover up 3 sides of the tank give more covering and hiding spot, and dont bother him or stare straight at him too much. basically it's whatever that can do to reduce it's stress, you have to do it.
If its wc you might have to feed it frogs. They wont eat anything else.
Yea if it wild caught would need very high hunidity from other speceis of horned frogs and she might wont to catch some toads and buy some from a company because they mainly eat toads she may need a few days to adjust if she eats a couple months later she may died thats what most people said have they buy wc cornutas even if they are eating good im looking for a couple for breeding projects and cbs

Thank you, I'll pass this to my friend
Wild frogs are almost impossible to take care of....
They're always super super stressed......
Pac mans can go a super long time without eating...
I'd shadows it's cage and leave it alone for awhile
They try and feed it... if it ends up never eating... you may have to force feed it.
Theres nothing worse than false information. Whats all this about wc frogs? The only truth in this is wc animals get stressed more easily, The rest is garbage. What happend to force feeding or leaving the frog a week or so then trying with food? WC frogs are easily tempted just like spoilt frogs that like a certain food let them get hungry and they will eat(FACT) Ive got dozens of wc frogs and im on litterally the other side of the world and there doing great it all depends on the owner how the frog gets on...
