Hey Guys,

Im new to this forum and have had reptiles for sometime now...we breed ball pythons and panther chameleons, in the near future we will hopefully be breeding some awesome looking Red Tail Boas...

We have a young Albino PacMan Frog....the question I have what feeding schedule and what types of different feeders do you feed...Also what size shoukd the frog be to offer a pinky mouse or pinky rat?

Thanks everyone and hopefully to make some good friends here!

juvenile or adult? how big?

[Johnny84]

Juvenile...its about as big or a little bigger than a silver dollar

well i would wait until its fully grown tbh to feed it mice or pinkies thats just me and you can feed it occasionally meal worms, fish, shrimp,earth worms, silk worms, dubia roaches, butter worms,crickets but if you feed crickets dust them every week with calcium and every other day with the other and you can feed them everyday or every other day i feed mine everday.....

We'll when i dust mine i dust every monday with reptical then the next day i do with with reptilife+with d3 then wait a day feed her and dust it again and wait a day and then dust again but never do them on the same day because i guess you can overdose your frog... and let me check because i even forgot how to do it ill pm you or post it on here when i find out again :P

Feeding schedule will depend on the size and age of your animal. With young frogs (half dollar size or smaller) I'd feed almost everyday. Use common sense when it comes to how much to feed, if your frog's bellies looks overfed obviously I would stop feeding. If it's too skinny then I'd increase the frequency of feeding.
I didn't offer my pacman any pinkies until it reached 2 and a half inches long, and I offer a pinky once a month. The most common food items for pacmans are crickets, earthworms (nightcrawlers), and dubia roaches. They prefer preys with soft bodies because hard exoskeletons can cause impaction which in severe case can lead to death of the animal. Don't forget to dust vitamin and calcium once in a while.
