Need some help with my pacmans.

Do you gutload the crickets for a day prior to feeding?

They certainly do all grow at considerable different rates. The growth rate you are seeing definately isnt bad or a sign there is a problem.

I feed mainly night crawlers now. Everyday

You should rotate between crickets and night crawlers. Say like twice a week offer a couple gut loaded dusted crickets with your frogs night crawlers. Feed crickets one or two days a week and the rest night crawlers. If offered a varied diet they will grow faster. Even offer Pacman Food between night crawlers. You can even dust the worms with the Pacman food Whig does work well.

ooh, Im gonna try that right now with my fantasy frog, dusting the crawler with pacman food. never even thought of that!

A pretty substantial amount of the pacman food caked onto the worm, to the point where the worm would have died, had my fantasy frog not oh so eagerly devoured it. Nice trick. Ive tried making worm shaped peices, didnt fall for it, mouse shaped, no go. Even molded the pacman food to strongly resemble a frog. The only other trick thats worked is to hold a nightcrawler out, and when he opens his mouth, insert the pacman food. This seems less mean hahaha.

Well they're not stupid Ra and have excellent vision as well as seeing in color. Its pretty hard to fool them. Smell also gave the Pacman Food shapes away. If the frog doesn't detect a hint of worm or mouse scent then its a no go.
