Well Derek
we will need some more info on you new frog like how large is it.
Did I understand you correctly that it has not had anything to eat in a month.
What did it eat?

BTW just in case you didn't already know the heat mat is not recommended unless you put it on the side of the tank not the bottom.

Read this Frog Forum - Pacman and Horned Frogs - Ceratophrys - Care and Breeding

Any indepth questions feel free to ask.

Did the guy you got it from say why it hadn't eaten in a month? Also, can you post a picture?

btw, don't peel the heat mat off the gecko's tank and re-use it. When you peel and restick them the internal wires can break and become a fire hazard.

Welcome to FF Derek! Wow; I'm glad you are here asking questions because if your Pacman did not eat for a month... it was starving ! Yep. please answer Louis questions and do read the care article. Good luck !
