    i dont want to hack this thread but i just have a couple questions concerning the substrate being too wet and the pacman bloating. my substrate doesnt seem that wet but my frog is a little inflated but he still eats and act normal. so the real question is how wet or damp should the substrate be and what should it look like? and ive never seen my pacman gone to the bathroom once or twice and i was there both times but idk how to tell if my frog has gone to the bathroom when im awhile

    They inflate them selves with air for many reasons. They will appear bloated when inflated or well hydrated. If they have to poop and you want to be sure whether your frog needs to or not here is what you do.

    Wash your hands thoroughly with a mild cleanser. Dry them completely then rinse them with the de-chlorinated water you use for your frog. Leave them wet so the frogs skin isn't irritated. Take your finger and feel his right side gently. If it feels firm ar hard then he needs to poop. They don't always need help to do so, but if your worried you can soak him in the De-chlorinated water/honey solution stated above. Make sure its luke warm.
