Your care was very good and I feel it may have happened despite all your effort. The initial stress could have made him sick or he could have come with it, it's always difficult to say in these situations. My friend's baby pacman didn't eat for nearly a month when she first got him and now he is thriving, so you never know what can happen. Only advice I can offer is to reconsider buying another Pacman from the same breeder and look around for reviews before buying from a certain source.

I wouldn't take it to heart about people not commenting. This forum is not as active as it once was, never seems to be more than 5 members on at a time. And the members who do come on, not all of them own or have a knowledge of certain frogs, so they wouldn't be helpful in advising about them. You can also visit these forums without a membership which is actually how I started out; you can look all you want but you can't comment (part of the reason I registered), so I have a feeling your thread simply had many silent spectators. Part of it could be your thread wasn't in the general Pacman area, too...so there's a lot of factors going into why only Misschic13 and I commented.

Another reason I joined and started responding to many threads was to encourage more discussion and to try and get this place more active again. I hope you aren't too discouraged, it was good of you to catalogue your journey with Limey and it may help many more people who only lurk on the forums for information.

Thank you for the information. I was a little irritated that he didn't make it. Maybe I vented in the wrong place.

I did not realize you did not need to register to view this forum. That makes a lot more sense as far as the view to comment ratio.

When I think back I am pretty sure he might have been impacted before I got him. I never saw poop. Thought I did in his water bowl. He was so small I assumed his poop would be tiny. Apparently they poop a pretty good amount even as babies. So I should have been able to definitely see it. I think that if I would have realized this earlier I could have started honey baths sooner and/or pedialite baths. I know this may or may not have made a difference.
I will not abandon this forum just yet.

I will start a new journey with my new buddy Rosco. He is a perty green cranwelli. He is about 2 months old. I am hoping he will be easier for me since he has had a good start so far. He is much fatter, more lively, and seems to be very healthy. He can make 2 jumps and be all the way across my 12x12.

I will make a new thread with ne updated pictures. I will put the new thread in the proper Pacman section.
