    Yes they are a carnivor/insectivor so they can eat it. Look for the brand "Royal Canine". It needs to be one for malnurished animals and it has to be the solid lump canned food. Not the shredded or chopped. Otherwise you can't suck it up into the seringe. You'll keep it in the fridge and the only problem is it lasts only for about a week then you have to throw it out. When you use it make sure its warmed first. All you have to do is get a small glass and fill it with warm de-chlorinated water. Then set the filled seringe in the water and th food will be warmed. Be careful when squeezing the food out in her mouth. Just do about half the seringe at a time. You'll still want to give her crickets and worms between uses of the canned food so she is still geting a varied diet and her normal food. Plus you can't dust the canned food. Lol! that would be difficult.

    Sounds like she was thirsty. That is usually a good sign. Especially if she is becoming active again. Oh and the pics you commented on are both of Grif. She was a little chubby baby and now is a karge chubby adult. Lol! Loki was much smaller than Grif when I got him. I rescued him frog poor conditions at a Petsmart.

    I fell in love with a Tomato Frog at the pet store because of the way he blew himself up. He was sooo tiny and the lady was cleaning his tank and he was not happy.. He doubled his size in a few seconds.. It was the cutest thing ever!

    Yep. Pacmans also do that when they feel threatened or are just grumpy. It is cute.
