    My thoughts exactly. Metabolism is very slow for the Pacman Frog. Some creatures, like the shrew, have very fast metabolisms, and must constantly spend all their time eating, or they'll simply die. Other, like ceratophyrs froggies, have a sit and wait, ambush approach to feeding. They must remain still and silent until some unsuspecting bug gets too close and becomes dinner.

    If he was well fed prior to the two weeks, and seems fine now, he's probably ok. I'm glad you have been taking such good care of the frog. I remember you weren't too thrilled with his laziness when he was new. I hope Gerald has shown you by now that Pacman frogs are really cool pets! Good luck buddy! Also, I think Gerald is a good name for a Pac.
