    I do wish you the best of luck. I had to save one of my Pacmans from dying. She got sick an quit eating it took me over 2 months to nurse her back to health. Now she's just fine and eats good. Not as aggressively as she did when she was a baby but she eats large meals and is good for a day or 2. Always wash your hand really well before handling your frogs. The oils and residues on our hands are bad for them. They are both very cute frogs.

    Pacmans are sooo cute!! I was looking up different frog calls on Youtube and found a video of a very angry pacman and it was growling and almost barking. I know it was irritated, but it was so funny! I also love the call of the Golden Poison Dart. I also happened to run across a video of a bullfrog doing his distress call (which was very much like shrieking) and thought it was funny too, but the way those people were handling it made me sick.. Poor frogs.. A lot are misunderstood and no one knows how to handle them or to just leave them alone!!! The only time I would get a frog is if I bought it at the pet store or if it's a rescue.. I've rescued Bufo's before and released them after they healed.. But I've never had to medicate one or anything like I have to do my Whites.

    There are so many people out there who mistreat their pets. It is always sad to see such things and it makes it worse when they video it. Their calls and other sounds they make are funny. They will bite if threatened as well. Pacmans and African Bull Frogs have farely large teeth and their bite can be quite painful. Most videos that show the mistreatment of their frogs are flagged by members of this forum.

    I don't blame them for flagging it!! It's wrong on so many levels.. Now the vids I watched of the pacman, the person was just putting thier finger up to the glass and apparently this little frog seemed to get really upset about it!! I didn't know frogs had teeth..

    Yep. Even your Whites have teeth. There is a post on the forum in the Pacman frog section called "Teeth". You should take a look at it. Has photos of Pacman frog teeth.

    You might want to try worms. They're alittle easier for her to swallow. They can be very difficult when you're trying to force feed them. Ofcourse non of us would like our mouths forced open and food shoved in either. You feed her during her normal feeding time right?
