    2 days, seems to look somewhat better. I'm beginning to wonder if also he needs to poop as I saw a post somewhere of a Pacman frog with a growth on his side and the next few days he pooped out a large... well poop lol. It has been 5 days since his last poop and when he did poop last it wasn't very big. How long do Pacman frogs go before going to the bathroom?

    He should be due to poop.

    He's back to normal size now, I threw in some crickets today as it's been 5 days since his last meal. Not sure if he'll eat or not but I just left him be.

    Good to hear. Keep a close eye on him for a while.

    Tim youre going to need to start changing the substrate once a month. Ammonia from their urine begins to build up in the soil can cause the frog to tox out from dirty conditions. Just a word of warning. Youve been lucky so far but it's not worth risking.

    He is probably stressed from the treatments. Keep his climate consistant and keep offering food

    Well today I decided to take drastic measures since it has been a week since he last ate. I force fed him 1 white or just shed meal worm (made sure I had one as they are right soft after they shed) and 3 crickets of which, although he fought me, he ate and he swallowed. I don't want to keep doing this but if it keeps him alive I will

    I know exactly that you mean, in the same shoes for 7 month now with one of my frogs, but in your case it doesn't sounds too bad yet and there is hope that he will eat on his own, FF is adding enormous amount of stress that you want to avoid. as you were advised - keep constant temps/conditions and let him be for a while and keep offering food for at least a week or even more. leave FF as a very last resort
    Save one animal and it doesn't change the world, but it surely changes the world for that one animal!
