Question on aestivate?

[nabbyg116]

I have 8 pacman frogs, all in the same conditions. My Fantasy frog has decided to aestivate for, so far, the past 2 months. Any ideas as to why one frog would do this, and no others? Should I wake him up, or just leave him be?
Thanks!

The Fantasy Frogs do things a little differently than all the pure Pacs. It should be okay, but maybe wait for Griff or mike to respond. I haven't had a Fantasy in years. Best of luck!!

Have you been checking on him to see if there is any weight loss and that he's ok??

[nabbyg116]

Oh yes, of course. He is still fat and alert (after he wakes up) when I uncover him. I've even tried to feed him a couple of times and he just closes his eyes and acts uninterested.

How old is he? Size SVL?

How old is he? Size SVL?

He's about 3" SVL and approximately 6-7 months old. Ate like a fiend before aestivation....I'm talking 3-4 good size (5-6 scoop) pacman balls in one sitting, every other day. Also, right before he aestivated, he constantly croaked and called from his enclosure for about 2 weeks.
