So today I found my juvenile ornate pacman frog, Whopperjaw, upside down in his bowl. He was injured (I'm assuming injured, as he came to me that way) as a little guy and has one foot a tad shorter than the other, plus what looks like mild scoliosis, which makes him prone to flipping himself and having trouble getting back up. He's otherwise healthy and a good eater, since they don't move much anyway.
But now I'm super worried! What if I hadn't found him fast enough? Does anyone have suggestions for providing water without also giving him a handy place to drown himself? Could I remove the bowl entirely and give him a daily soak instead? He lives on a foam insert with little burrows in it and that holds water really well, so it stays nice and humid even without the bowl.
Ya you could remove the water bowl if your really worried and just give a bath every few days, as long as the substrate is moist he will get most his water and moisture from there. There is people that keep them without a water bowl and just give baths.
