bloating in baby pacman

[Bynny Ribbit]

Thanks for filling it out. For the feeding, he may simply be stressed from moving to a new environment, so I wouldn't try to force it. If his environment doesn't have a lot of things he can accidentally ingest, you can try leaving a few crickets in overnight and see if he eats any of them. I wouldn't recommend red wigglers since they can be foul tasting for frogs and can put them off eating any kind of worm. If you want to give him worms, I would get him some nightcrawlers and cut them up smaller, but this can be something to try later after you know he's eating.

The 10 gallon may be adding to his stress since it's such a large space and these frogs feel safer in smaller spaces when they're younger. You can try to find something to use to "divide" the tank and make it seem smaller so he feels more secure.

For the bloating, keep in mind that these frogs will retain "water weight" to maintain hydration. Mine will look super fat from soaking in a lot of water. It only becomes an issue if they are incapable of releasing the water build-up (edema) or if the bloating makes the frog feel like it's full of air.

Pictures are always helpful! Hopefully some else can give their input, I've only had my Pacman for 7 months so maybe someone with more experience can be more helpful.

Thanks. I'm not sure if loose substrate should be considered a big risk when putting loose crickets in for food... he did eat without complaint today, thought.

Could it just be water weight? He seems to behave alright other than the bloat, which I should probably mention seems to flare back up a day or so after he pees both times I thought it would be a long term improvement, but it seems he'll just swell right back up

He does look pretty round in that picture, but it's honestly hard to say. If you received something to treat him from your vet, I would follow through with the treatment. Maybe someone else can advise better.
