    Default adult pacman frog isn't interested in her food

    Hi I got an adult female fantasy pacman just over a week ago she seems fine in herself but she isn't interested in any food I offer her. The reptile shop I got her from said she had eaten the day before I got her. just a little advice would be great thanks

    Answer the questions from this sticky; it'll help us know if something needs to be changed in the husbandry, or if she's just being picky.

    Do you know what they were feeding her at the store?
    It's not unusual for pacs to wait a week or so before eating in their new home, especially adults. This is probably nothing to worry about.

    Ah, there's a problem. They never should really eat anything larger than a pinky mouse (hair is an unnecessary impaction risk IMO) and they shouldn't get more than one pinkie in a month as a treat; the high fat content can cause them to go blind and cause liver failure.

    Nightcrawlers, gut-loaded crickets, and dubia roaches are all excellent options for staple feeders.
