    Good catch on the droopy jaw for MBD. A single horn worm or dozen crickets in a week is a very small amount of food for a growing pacman. One of mine that came from a big pet store had the same issue but got better with proper nutrition. Lots of calcium dusting, being albino it probably won’t need any extra uv which can help them bind calcium. Try a pinky mouse or even a small mouse to really increase the frogs intake, dietary source is always better than supplements, but they are also fattening so don’t use them as a food source other than every few months. Was given liquid calglucon by the vet at one point to supplement for a while, but I’m not recalling if it was for the same frog or another that they thought was low on bone density.

    Thinking about it thats indeed not alot of food my lizard eats abit more then 12 crickets in a single meal and he isnt as heavy as packie.
    Thank you for the information, im probably already feeding her more. Since in her first week with us she ate: a large hornworm, 5-6 crickets, 4 fish (minnows).
    recently she is eating a mix of crickets and earthworms. (She ate a pinky on her second week)
    I’ve had her for almost 4 weeks so im still adjusting on how much to feed her

    What’s the typical feeding rule, however much they want in 15 minutes twice a week. As a growing frog it should be that every two or three days. Mine as adults are eating 3 large night crawlers a week, and could possibly have more since they seem very hungry every time I feed them.

    Update on Packie: she has put on some weight! She is now at 92g instead of 78g.
    She tried to taste test my fingers twice by now.

    I'm glad to hear she is doing well and she's feisty! Sounds like a Pacman in much better health!

    She is fiesty! She seems even hungrier then before now that she knows i bring her food. She eats mostly nightcrawlers (dusted with calcium and D3) when we get butterworms and other fancy worms she gets some too. She seems to like the zoomed pacman frog powder food- actually she likes everything. Except crickets she pouted at me when i fed her a cricket and refused to eat her second one so i stopped with the crickets. she also ate a pinky in august~
