If you lost a Pacman before; recommend review this article before second try and to quarantine the new one for one month. Good luck!

    Lecroixe: I've had frogs on Repashy's Calcium Plus for over a year and they are healthy with no issues. It's not possible for me or most frog keepers to do a scientific comparison of which is better; just to present observations .

    Thanks mentat, I have already read that article several times recently. I'm happy all the other conditions were good. The only thing I can I was doing wrong is not giving multivitamin.
    So the repashy arrived mail order. Hopfully I have no issues this time.

    im so glad this forum exists as there is very little info on these frogs here in the uk.

    Ah, Thanks Carlos & Paul. I've been toying with the idea of frog sausages for the longest time and through my own research the meat alone wouldn't provide the proper nutrients that the frogs need. It's good to know that I can't really go wrong with either unless I end up in some sort of freak incident.

    I currently have two supplements myself, one for calcium and another for vitamin A and I generally feed both my frogs their supplements on the same day. I don't see any sense in having different feeding schedules for the little guys, keeping them on the same feeding schedule.

    I'll have to order a multi-supplement for when I have to toss these or run out and see how my own pacmans react.

    Lecroixe: Mixing CA/D3 supplements with other products could interfere with CA adsorption in frog's system .
    Remember to take care of the enclosure and it will take care of your frog !​

    Whoops haha, for lack of clarification I meant that I fed both frogs a single supplement together and another day of the week/month they would get the other. That is good to know though, didn't realize mixing CA/D3 in particular with anything else could cause lack of absorption.
