Pacman Emergency :(

I think there's an electrolyte solution some people use. I don't remember what it is though.

A lot of people here have talked about using unflavored pedialyte.

Yeh I think I read it is 1 part pedialyte to 4 parts water but i may be wrong.

If you're worried about nutrient/calcium deficiencies, then after you get your frog over whatever's going on now, you should probably buy a powdered calcium supplement. I use Reptical. It sticks to things pretty well and is pretty easy to find. They probably sell it wherever you bought the frog at... I've never used those calcium sprays before, but I've heard a lot of people complaining about them.

Is there a reptile vet in your area you could take him to?

[demeteraurion]

Artes, I don't think we have an exotic vet in my area, there's one 20 minutes away in the next city I think.

DVirginiana, thanks for the advice. I will look for a supplement today since I'll be near the Pet store.

I think he is going to be okay now. I threw crickets in with him last night and he got one. I do think they are too big for him though because it took him a while to eat it all. I guess when he ate two at a time that was too much for him o.O I plan on feeding him one cricket every other day since they are large. He looks a little overweight, maybe the Petco was overfeeding him... One day when I saw him he had three crickets in there and they probably feed them daily.

20 minutes isn't a bad trip. I have to drive 40 minutes to an hour (depending on traffic) to my vet. -_- If the crickets are too big, you risk impacting him - get smaller crickets. Also, pacman frogs are supposed to be fat.
