Juvenile pacman frog not eating

[POLISWAG]

He's about 2-3 inches. I spray his tank at least 3 times a day. He lives in a 10 gallon, plenty of shade spots and dirt to completely bury himself. I tried small dubia roaches and mealworms but he just slaps them away. His tank is right next to a heater. What's wrong with him? I've only had him for 3-4 days now.

Hi ,if you have only had him 3 to 4 days he may be still adjusting, some of them go through this and others eat the first night home. And if hes a juvenile 3 to 4 days isn't to bad without food. Your humidity I would try and keep around 75% and your heat should be around 82f to 84f, I keep mine at 82f. If his temps are to cold he wont want to eat and if he does eat it wont digest properly and you don't want the food to sit in his system for to long. The heat is very important. Try and put the tank in quiet a room if it isn't because loud noises and traffic will scare him and stress him out, if he gets very stressed for long periods of time his immune system will weaken and he more the likely become sick. Also if you cover 3 sides of his enclosure this helps reduce stress and helps them settle in. Just keep offering and he should eventually take it.

Thank you for the info! how many more days do you recommend that I should wait?

And about noise, I can't really control that. I have 2 loud parrots who are almost always making sounds. My room is the only spot I can keep him in.

If he doesn't eat something for you in the next couple days then there could be something else wrong but for now I wouldn't worry to much and just keep trying. If the noise is just the parrots he may get to used to it due to it always being the same noise. Its more loud voices and sudden loud noises and banging that you would have to worry about.

And one more question that I forgot to include in my other reply is, am I supposed to feed him if he's all the way at the bottom of his bedding all the time? I feel kinda bad for digging him out of his home and bothering him.

You can just uncover his head so his eyes can open and so his mouth is exposed and clear of coco fibre and that's good. As long he can see it that's all that counts, and ya completely uncovering will freak him out and just take him longer to settle. If he hasn't pooped for you since you have had him and he doesn't eat tonight try and give a warm bath tomorrow with some honey in it and he may go to the bathroom and once he has emptied out he may eat. So put about 4 drops of honey in warm bath of declorinated water no higher then his chin and let him sit in there for 20 mins or till It gets cold. After this put him in just a normal bath of declorinated water for another 20 mins to rinse the honey water of him. While doing this you can put a towel over his bath to keep the heat in and help him to relax, and don't worry even if he doesn't have to go the honey wont hurt him. Oh and sometimes they wont go in the water but wait till you put them back in there home so if you try it and he doesn't go in the water make sure you look around his terrarium later to see if he went in there.
