I bought an albino Pacman about a week ago at petco and he won't eat...Everything that he does bite on he just lets it sit inside his mouth and then spits it out ...any way to get him to eat?
I've never owned a Pacman (yet), but I've read enough about them to help you. I certainly can't explain why your frog is spitting out whatever is offered, but I can ask you some questions, the answers of which might provide some insight as to why he might be doing that. Also, for the record, many exotic animals bought at chains like Petco are often in less than ideal health to begin with.
What are your temperatures/humidity levels?
What substrate?
Do you use dechlorinated/treated water for ANYTHING the frog lives on?
What are you attempting to feed him?
That's a start anyway.
How large are the food items you are offering your frog? If the items you offer are too large then the frog may bite them and after a little bit realize that the food is too big and spit it out.
What are you offering as food?
Answer these questions and repost the answers here in your thread. http://www.frogforum.net/pacman-frog...enclosure.html
Hi Jk.
If your frog isn't skinny as hell, you don't need to worry. Just check humidity and heat. Try different food items. I got two adults last year who refused to eat aswell. They did not eat for almost 3 months and were still fine. So changed the subtrate. I started keeping them on water only(just check If you need to condition your water), which I changed every other day. You could literatly see them getting fitter. I tried different food. They seem to love fish. Nowadays they are eating almost everything(own fingers included).
So don't worry TOO much.
If you tongue feed you could start to "annoy" him a bit - just poke his mouth and feet with the food item.
Good luck buddy
