Pacman frog eating question!

[sobo2gego]

Thanks for clearing that up, I did some research and its superworms/mealworms that are very close. Superworms are larger, and have a higher fat content.
I dont want to disagree but ive heard of plenty of people feeding their pacmans mealworms, and after plenty of reading, mealworms are almost the same thing as superworms, just not as fat. So im sure they can digest them, Its just harder to digest so people recommend nightcrawlers or wax worms like grif did above.

Ill go back to the store today and find some softer worms, I dont want to risk anything.

I was told wax worms, nightcrawlers,

I didn't know any better at first. All I fed my pacman was superworms at first and he was impacted for a very long time so I suggest staying away from superworms and mealworms all together. Wax worms are ok just don't feed them so often because they are high in fat. Maybe once a week with the wax worms

Cut pieces off the worms starting at the tail. It will the pale spear shaped end. Probably cut pieces off that are about 2" long and offer them to your frog. The rest of the worm will survive and begin to regenerate the tail, but that process takes a long time. Just switch back and forth between worms until they're gone.

A 2" to 2.5" frog should be able to eat 2 to 3 pieces that are 2" in length depending on how thick the worm is. Be sure to dust with a calcium supplement that contains Vitamin D3 every other feeding and dust with a Reptile/Amphibian multivitamin once a week and not at the same time in the same feeding as the calcium.
