    Default Is my Albino pac the right size?

    i had him for 5 months and the guy i bought it off she he was 3 months so that makes em 8 months i guess.
    I feed em every other dusted crickets and pinkies every once in a while. When i first got him he was a little bit bigger than a quarter now he blows up sometimes into the size of a golf ball if not bigger, he gets small sometimes tho so is he the right size for its age? He is growing but pretty slowly

    If the frog is intact that old he is stunted pretty bad. Probably from either poor genes or inadequate care from the previous care taker. Make sure you dust his food with a multivitamin once a week and dust with calcium every other to every 2 feedings. Do not dust with both at the same time in the same feeding.

    Does he have potential to grow full size?

    At this point he may never reach full potential, but probably still has some growth left in him. Full grown is usually around a year of age.

    get some nightcrawler and cut them in half and feed him with tongs at least both halves every night dip one end of the worm in calcium twice a week and vitamins twice a week not on the same feeding. and up the number of worms as he grows.

    ok.. one they don't adapt to fit their tank....two if he is 8 months old he is vary small .. like half the size I would expect in most cases.. he probably can still make it to full size.. but he needs better food and more of it.. ie. night crawlers would be the best and easiest to get.. tho in riverside you can get most any foods that are way better then crickets.. like horned worms and roaches. Also a full grown female can live in a 10 gal just fine so its not the size of the tank.. but temps and other things could be a factor.

    I keep them in swampy/muddy eco-earth but enough substrate to dig and burrow. Burrowing is where they most comfortable and less stressed which in turn promotes appetite.
    Temp is constant 80
