    Just thought I’d update you he came out without me digging him up. I put 2 crickets in his enclosure small ones. And I checked a few minutes later and they were gone. I heard sometimes crickets burrow though so idk if that means he ate them. I think he did though but I’df not I did leave out an orange cube for the crickets and they’re small crickets so I’d imagine they couldn’t do too much damage to the frog if they did bit. Regardless I’ll be buying some powder free gloves and examining him for bites tomorrow and the next few days.

    He’s not eating hasn’t for 2 days 3 including today. I try multiple times a day. I tried nightcrawlers and superworms he didn’t want them even tried a freeze dried cricket rubbed it up against him like this video suggested didn’t want em. Idk what to do. I can’t seem to pick up the live crickets so I can’t leave them out overnight for him. I’m terrified he won’t eat and die.

    Well maybe give him the next few days to settle in, and don't bother him and make as little noise as possible.

    Here's a great pacman frog care sheet I found online, you may want to peruse it. But regardless, the first mistake was buying a pacman frog from Petco

    He ate last night it seems he only eats free roaming crickets. I just let 3 roam around and kept close watch and 30-45 minutes he ate them all. I dusted 2 with reptivite since he hasn’t eaten much so I figured he’s need some. I’m very glad he ate but I am worried I won’t be able to transition him to nightcrawlers or dubias. Which id prefer they’re better for the frog and also easier to catch and feed.

    EDIT: Wanted to clarify I have tried handfeeding and tong feeding a cricket it didn’t work and was honestly rather difficult to hold onto. I also tried hand and tong feeding small superworms and nightcrawlers. I even tried tong and hand feeding a freeze dried cricket and nothing seems to work besides cricket. On the plus side he ate now so atleast he should be ok for a a day or 2 but I really would prefer if he ate nightcrawlers.
