    When you guys say AC are you talking about a window air condition or a heat/air system? We have central heat and air but I don't know if it affects my animals, my vent barely blows so my room is typically a lot warmer. But winter is coming so its going to mean it will be colder too.

    Your pacman has awusome colors. I love the brown tone on him. He looks bloated in one pic. From the back view. Jast a thought. Hope he gets better . You might have to get him a pinky.

    I second that. Atleast if your frog eats a pinky it will tide him over for about a week or alil less. Is he large enough for a new born pinky by the pics?

    In this case he still to young for rodents. But he can eat one. Its small and soft. Some time he'll take it afer 5 minutes.

    Was reading up on what my frog is currently doing and discovered, to my horror, that he might be dying . He's very bloated, not the firm little thing he was yesterday, squishy-like. Both of his hind legs are splayed out, he will move them but only slightly. I hope that what I read is wrong and that he's just in a state of shock (been this way all day, first time he's done this).

    You have to soak him in 80 degree water. Add a little dash of aquarium salt. Hopfully. He passes what is blocking .Good luck

    Can I just use simple salt? I don't have aquarium salt, what can be used in place of aquarium salt?

    Any AC window or central air. Something about the cooling of the air affects them. Even if the enclosure gauge reads correct it doesn't mean the frog is not feeling the affects. I assume that the warmer temp in the enclosure and the cooler air outside it causes a vaccume that must pull cool air into the enclosure as the warm air rises out. The cool air replaces the warm air creating a draft. It might trigger them into winter mode but not fully so they're awake but don't feel the erge to feed
