Hello,
So I did some research and purchased my first pacman frog two weeks ago today. He looked great when I got him, but now I'm not sure if he is doing well or not. He looks to be about a year old or so, actually it is probly a female because the frog is a good size. Anyway, I do not believe the frog has eaten since I got him. I saw him go after a cricket a couple days after I got him, but he missed, and I don't think he has eaten at all. Is this just because he is in a new environment?
I have done everything I have found to do on the internet. He didn't have any heat on him where I got him, but I have a lamp that will keep it from 70-80 degrees on him. I mist him down a lot and make sure he has plenty of water. He has never been in his water bowl. He has dug himself in the substrate good but his eyes are not as perky looking as they have been. Does anyone have any suggestions on anything I can do? He does look sick to me. Thanks

Give him some time. These frogs burrow by nature, he isn't going to be in his water bowl very often.

They bury more the drier and hotter it is.

They cna go very long periods with out foods, months. Don't worry just yet.

Also, make sure you use dechlorinated or bottled water.

or you could leave ordinary tap water to stand for 3 days then spray your pacman with it.
