Feeding pacman!!!!!

[priya]

well i havent seen anything like that in our pet shops down here, but would he take food that doesnt move?

If you tong-feed, yes. As long as you wiggle it around, he'll go for it. I do this with my frogs. It's strange that he won't even go for crickets! Also, you can order this stuff online. I got those images at Pet Supplies, Pet Accessories, and Many Pet Products | PetSmart. Hopefully he won't be so picky in the future. Poor guy. Let me know what happens!

well i wiggle live crickets and locust in front of him every day and he doesn't wanna know, the only thing he wants is wax worms, i haven't tried meal worms yet because i hear bad things about them.

i was told they have no nutritional value and they can eat there way back out of the frog.

ive tried him on earth worm too but he wont eat them either.

how big does a pacman frog tank need to be?

i keep hearing that it needs to be a 10 gallon tank, but as us gallons are different to uk gallons could anyone tell me what the tank size is in feet and inches please?

I imagine if he gets hungry enough he'd eventually eat from the tongs, but hey- wax worms are better than nothing! Try coating them in calcium or vitamin dust. That way he'll get more nutrition out of them. As for the tank, if he's small it doesn't need to be too large at all. Do you have a picture of his setup?

the length of the prey item cannot be bigger than the distance between the eyes
