Pac Man Frog Substrate?

JethrozMom Jul 08, 2003 04:49 PM

Ok, this is dumb, i know, but i always used to keep my little tiny baby pac man's on paper towels.

I now have a subadult (4" that i got because someone decided they didnt want him. They had him on spanish moss, which is really really gross and smelly and stuff..is it ok to use paper towels for him too? What should i use if not paper towels?

Thanks guys,
Jamie

Mine do fine in just water, I fil it till it's up to their lips and that should be fine. of course you can get more elaborate and use herp specific beddings. Like bed-a-beast I've never seen thsi product anywhere though so I have no idea how good it even is.

Is it OK to put them in just water though? I had heard that you shouldnt keep them in just water.

Oh well, water is cheap!

Bed a Beast is similar to care fresh, and care fresh gets GROSS when it gets wet b/c its just recycled paper.

Will go clean out the frog tank now, though i hvae no idea where im going to put him while i do it, he hops out of his deli cup!

Thanks,
Jamie
