    Smile Color changeing pacman frog?

    Well Chum Chum has a very healthy attitude no problem when hunting for food, loves to soak in the water and is a bit too active for a pacman frog I may even say. However it changes color it goes from really pale almost white to really dark almost black really quickly I see relationship between his color change to anything really. Temp and humidity are stable. Before and after feeding same color change. I don't know if that is a problem or not ill take some pics when he does it again to show everybody in the mean time here is a pic of how he normally looks he got sooooooooo big =) Should I be worried too pale, too dark does it matter?

    Pacman frogs change colors to adapt to their surroundings and also change colors depending on their mood. Its normal for them to change color shades.

    Probably just his normal content mood. Each individual frog will groa at different rates. It isn't always uncommon for an occasion where an older frog may be smaller than a younger frog. It does happen sometimes. Especially if when they are babies and I mean new froglets and one gets more food than the other.

    As we all do. I look back a pics of Grif when she was a baby and its hard to believe how little she was compared to now. Loki has grown a lot too and I feel the same when I look at his pics. Watching their colors change as they grow as well as their body shapes and when they lose their baby face and start looking like adults.

    Cool color change! Mine stays pretty much the same green based color all the time.
    Remember to take care of the enclosure and it will take care of your frog !​
