    Yes, Pacman frogs are often picky eaters.
    My male ornata was hunting all kinds of preys when he was a juvenile (Crickets, red runner roaches, little earthworms).
    Now, he is a subadult, and he only hunts nightcrawlers, adult locusts.
    He likes also dead mices with tong.
    But, he doesn't like anymore hunting Dubia roaches or crickets...He only accepts them by force feeding with tong...

    Ok, so I guess I don´t have to worry

    My frog likes crickets (dusted, gut loaded), roaches, small fish, woodlouses etc. I prefer feeding him with forceps (I don´t think it has something to do with force feeding, I just hold the food in front of his snout and he takes it by choice) because it´s easier to control the amount of food that way. I might change that as soon as I have more experience; he didn´t always eat properly in the past and I´m still new to this species after all.
