    well when i first got my little bubba he didnt eat anything but superworms for like a week and i found out that it was a no no on my part but its all he would eat :P and it took 3 days for my pac to even eat when i first brought him home. Try getting some hornworms they are super healthy for growing frogs and mine goes nuts over them.

    All water you use must be de-chlorinated. Hiking water/the water you use to expand his substrate and soaking dish. everything must be chemical free.

    Sometimes they won't eat if they are comfortable and burrowed in their substrate (mine is just that lazy). If he still won't eat in his regular enclosure, try uncovering him and misting him (or even sitting him in his water dish) right before feeding. This always seemed to make mine more alert and willing to move about when he was a baby... Now he just eats whatever walks in front of him.

    When feeding the pacman with superworm, I would rip the head off so the two "pinchers" won't hurt the frog internally. Frogs are different with reptiles in terms of not killing its prey with chewing, instead they swallow their prey whole.
