    How long has it been since your frog has eaten? What is the temperature and humidity? How is your frog acting?

    He sounds OK. Try to feed him every day. If he don't eat feed him tomorrow. They like some wigglers. They get stimulated and eat more.

    I second this. Yeah seems fine to me. You need to buy a hygrometer so you know what the humidiy level is in your frogs enclosure. They need anywhere from 65% to 80% humidity. Try breaking the hind legs off the crickets. Doing this makes them easier for your Pac to catch. Also do as BG said and try wigglers. Might be something your Pac will snatch right up. Feed him/her everyday as BG said babies and juviniles need food available evryday for strong healthy growth. Also be sure to dust your frogs food with a multivitamin dust once a week and a calcium dust supplement every other feeding. Make sure you are using de-chlorinated water with your frog if you are using tap water. You have to buy a water treatment/conditioner or the chemicals in the tap water will harm or kill your frog. Make sure that you use coconut fiber for substrate and keep it moist. You might need to maintain a temp of 78 to 80 all the time. Sometimes it helps to have a little less of a temp drop from day to night. Keep us posted. Plus go to the care articles and read the Pacman frog care article. Very good info.
