    ive looked int0 the powders awhile ago. it has only really been available recently and people have been hating on it but i think its good for those who dont like live bugs, worms, mice etc either handling and/or feeding them to the frog. also no other supplements are needed when giving the powder to pacs. all nutrients and calcuim is provided. the problem i heard from one guy who bought a samurai pac and the powder food is that the pac didnt go for it. i think the powder food is a safer route when you take parasites and other nasty stuff into account that live feeder food could transmit to your frog.

    I have used it and I think it is convenient. My larger pacs go for it but my little ones (that started off on crickets) seem to be hesitant. I dont use it all the time though and have used it only for about 3 weeks

    Well the video is very good. I think if you could wean the frogs onto it then I don't see the harm. Sure it's not the most natural diet but it's a lot better than feeding with mice, etc. My main misgiving is that pacman frogs are notoriously difficult to convince to change foods.

    We did not have any issues with our frogs accepting it at all.
    Please remember though, our frogs are tong fed often enough to know that when they see tongs, it's food.
    We had some froglets who had just metamorphed and were being picky about eating and they accepted it and were just fine after that.
    We also tried using carnivorous fish food pellets and ground them into a powder, added some calcium & vitamin powders and made a dough out of it and it worked just as well.

    Good Luck with it, I hope your frog likes it!

    I just ordered some today to try it out. Might be something to give them as a treat. Actually makes me think that someone is making vegetarian food for frogs. I like mine being a carnivore/insectavore.

    I could crush up some dried crickets and roaches in the dough.
