If you don't think that a pacman frog should ever have any small rodent to eat, then you are the bad owner. u prolly wouldn't let your dog have any table scraps either. pacs r happy to have a real meal once in a while. You just have to be responsible with it. have tongs ready to pull its head away if it attempts to bight the frog, and choose an appropriate size meal for the frog. (like an half to 3quarter grown mouse)
