HELP PACMAN

pacman101 Dec 15, 2003 02:37 PM

I came home from school today to find my completely healthy pacman frog from the night before upside down in his water dish. I flipped him back over and he was still alive.The night before he was plump and healthy now he has no fat on him whatsoever.
there is a bone poking at his skin under his throat.Should I put him out of his misery? If so how??

Crickets.I left him in his cage for a while and put him in his water bowl and now he seems to be fine....I think he was constricting himself because he didn't have enough moisture?
But now he doesn't look really skinny anymore and seems fine.I am gonna keep checkin on him.

Maybe he became impacted; they will get a "scrunched" look sometimes when they're constipated, or even merely having a large bowel movement. What substrate are you using?
