Pacman Frog Not eating

[DorkiTimmy]

Hello My Ornate pacman frog that i had for about 8months suddenly isnt eating anymore. She hasn't eating for the pass 2 weeks or so... i have tried large crickets to superworms to mouse to dubia roaches. Shes in a 10gal tank with nothing but substrate and a fake plant soil is moist not too wet of course. I have no heat of any sort for her so her tank is ually at the 70-80 Im in Socal Orange County Any tips Thankyou

Tank should be low to mid 80's during the day 70 is too cold and could very well be why it's not eating

Matt is right. Get a UTH on the side of your tank. Zoo Med 6"x8" should do the trick and get her a water dish.

UTH? well i placed a 60watt light keeping the place at like 80 now misting every2-3 hours to keep humidity high threw a large cricket in still havn't tried eating it yet added a small water dish that it can get in and fully soak for the past hour. Good or what else would i need to fix?

A UTH is a Under tank Heater, but you must place it on the side.

Use a 50 watt bulb. Does your lamp have a dimmer switch?

75 watts is to high. 60 watts is pushing it. Get a UTH and place it on one end of the 10 gallon.

90% humidity is to high for extended periods of time.

Water should be changed no less than every two days except when the frog enters the water then it needs changed immediately or that day.

If the frog is never handled then how do you remove the frog to clean the enclosure?

Do you have your screen top covered with plexiglass, aluminum foil, or Plastic Wrap?

Have you ever offered your frog Earthworms/Night Crawlers?

Is there any discoloration of the skin?

Any changes in activity other than not eating including listlessness, lethargy, runny fecies, excessive shedding, not burrowing, staying burrowed, or flipping over on it's back?
