Dead Maggots found in feces

DarylLai Apr 06, 2006 10:34 AM

I found dead maggots in my recently aquired pacman. So far, I've fed it minnows, two crickets, a small fuzzy mouse. I'm aware that feeders out there could carry parasites, but out of all the pacman frogs I've raised or even took care of, this is the first time I ever came across something like this. The night it happened, I noticed he was breathly unusally and occassionally open his mouth. Today, he has stopped opening his mouth but his throat doesn't seem to look as relaxed as before. Any members have suggestions I could do to take care of this or any past experiences on what exactly this might be. I'm assumming the little guy had a case of "food poisoning"? Thanks in advance.
