    I'm wondering if since he tries to bite your finger, if he'd tong feed?

    ive tried with tongs, he just not interested, today he just suddenly got worse. i think when i purchased him he had a parasite. ive done some research and some of his behavior just leads me to believe he not in good shape . I love my pacman frog, as much as i love any other animal i have ever owned. i'm just starting to wonder if its anything my fault or nature just stomping on my face. if its a parasite im starting to think that he may be a gonner. =( im not a sensitive person but if i lose frank ill DEFINATELY cry. its the most beautiful creature i have ever seen. ill keep everyone posted as much as possible. the frog seems to like slightly warm dechlorinated water sprayed on him when he is covered in substrate, but shortly after i stop he just flops over on his back and stays there. i go in every 5 minutes or so to check on him and sometimes i go in there and he is just upside down like he just wants to give up. not even trying to flip back over.

    I posted on your latest thread and I'm going to here.

    Ok. Do not spray him directly. You are causing more stress right now. I want you to prepare a warm soak of de-chlorinated water and honey. The water must be no deeper than up to his chin, but I prefer a little less than that. Disolve 2 to 4 drops of honey in the water and place your frog in. Let him soak for 10 minutes. Then place him back home. Keep him away from drafts during this. Also keep his home warm so he doesn't get cold at all.

    This can reduce stress as well. Try it and keep us posted. Like I said in your new thread. You must remain calm.
