    Unhappy Pacman frog seems not to want to eat

    I feel for u, I see your desprate for answers, and I'm sorry I don't have this frog. So I cannot give u a definite answer. But all frogs take time to settle in. 5 crix in 3 days is allot for a Lil frog, and I think he's fine. They don't like being handled, or force fed. Let him rest, and digest, if in another week he hasn't eaten, maybe a luke warm(75) pedialite bath mixed 1 to 10 with water. I see u have him on moss, could be an impaction, warm water could help that. I read somewhere they'll stay hurried fir a long time and sleep. Get used to digging them out to eat. Try using search engine on this site, or look way to bottom of this post for similar threads by other peep. Ive read all your posts. I have no idea bout the eye thing, sorry I'm not much help. Maybe someone who owns this frog will come on and help. Sorry dear

    These frogs take time to settle in to their new home. My pacman took just over a week before he willingly took food from me. I knwo that some frogs have taken longer. Just be patient, you frog will eat once he/she is settled in and fels comfortable to do so. Though you may want to do a little check and make sure your pacman is totally healthy just because he/she is new hope it helps

    My albino took a week before reading, my green took less than 48 hours, it really depends... But I'd say give the frog a week
