    Exclamation how many worms a feeding?

    Hi i'v owned my pacman gizmo for about 2 week's now i'm feeding it a staple of earthworm(nightcrawlers) every livefood site in the uk that stocks them seems to have got them from the same place the tubs are always identical same with the font their labels as "small worm pre-pack" anyway how many would you recommend feeding it i'd say there just about 10-14cm at full crawl or strech whatever the term is lol.I do cut them into the right sizes bits and tong feed and so far the frogs done what equals 1 worm a sitting he has done two a few times but this limit is down to me stopping at one apart from when i fed him two obviously, would you feed him more then the one or because he is a cb4 "baby" would the one every two days be ok i wouldnt want to under or over feed.

    As many as it can eat in roughly 15 minutes, every day. No need to worry about over feeding when young. It all will go into growth, its only really adults that can become over weight.

    My most recent frog was eating 3 night crawlers a night at 1.5 inches and was up to 5-6 a night by 3inches.
    2.0 Bombina orientalis
    1.0 Bufo americanus
    0.1.1 Ceratophrys cranwelli
    0.1 Xenopus laevis


    All my arachnids and other inverts listed in my profile

    my adult pacman can eat upto 12 earth worms a week baby pacmans can probably triple that but its a great source of proteins and calcium for them to grow on. when he slows his eating habits start spacing the feedings out to every two or three days till he seems satisfied. and it is okay to overfeed them it just means they wont eat for a couple of days but will still act normal.
