Worried about my Pacman

[LizardMama]

This is him now, the pic above was of him last night before he pooped





I guess after pooping he shrank and just needs to eat some more to get that plumpness back (I hope!!)

How deep is your substrate? It should be deep enough that he can bury himself completely if he wants to.

The substrate does look quite shallow for a burrowing frog. Another thing, a bit off topic...

Does the same rule for feed pacs apply as it does for tree frogs, with the crickets being no larger than the width of the eyes? Just asking because that cricket looks quite large for the little guy.

[LizardMama]

Yeah I'm planning on adding more substrate to his cage today as yes he doesn't have enough. He ate that cricket but I'll add some that are a little smaller than that one

Is it alright to use a red light on Pacman Frogs? The cage in front of him houses a Leopard Gecko and he uses a red heat lamp, 75 watt, and some of the light does hit the frogs' cage. The light isn't on him but the light does light up his cage though. I added some more substrate to his cage, he hasn't burrowed down in it (normal, I suppose) and the temperature now in his cage is between 80-82 degrees F (26-27 degrees C)
