Flipped pacman? What is going on???

[gtr319]

Hey guys,

I have noticed my albino Pacman flipping over... do any of you guys have any experience as to what is happening to it? I flipped him back and hes running away as usual, But I have noticed the loss of appetite.. and when I fill his burrow (after he got out), he just burrow in an other spot with no problem...

any help would be greatly appreciated~

Flipping is usually not a very good sign. Not sure what causes it but had a fantasy that flipped and it passed away a week later even though it was eating fine.

but he looked like he fell into the burrow he just got out of... when I flipped him back, he was ok and did not flip over while he ran away from the spoon... last night + this morning when I check, he is still burrowing....

For mines it was on paper towel substrate and when I found it, it was on it's back and couldn't right itself back up so your case and mines could be totally different. Not to scare you or anything but to me a normal healthy frog shouldn't have any problem propping itself back into normal position/posture.


Keep us updated.

@ Eel Noob: Now my albino is in the burrow, I wouldn't want to dig him out and mess with him, but I hope is not anything serious because both my albino and my green pacman are eating the same batch of crickets from the same pet store, not to mention they live in the same tank split into two sides...
