Chomper - Pacman Frog

- Honey, let's go to reptile expo, we need to buy mices for our snakes, but don't worry, we will not buy any animals as I only need three snakes for breeding, and we don't have place for new lizards.
*half hour later after we bought snake food we are looking around what people are having on their tables*
- Look, on few tables there are these frogs you always wanted, maybe you want early Christamas present?
- YES. Well, that's the story of Chomper, she/he is a small Pacman Frog that will be bigger than my hand in future https://www.facebook.com/images/emoj.../1/16/2764.png<3 There was also a lovely mint brother/sister but since it was smaller the breeder told us that it would be better to buy another one (I'm really glad that there are still good people that will tell you that the animal you want may be a little problematic!)

Really cool. I hope to get one someday too.

Thank you! Few more pics (and it'll be the last ones for a next days, until he settles down and eats at least 2-3 times):

Nice little guy now make sure to provide a proper environment for it, ideally you want to use DAMP coco coir or DAMP sphagnum moss, and I mean DAMP, those frogs are ambush predators that bury themselves in the ground so paper towel is not it.

Their need is simple very damp substrate, no water dish and proper temps. :gj:

Awesome lil fella.
I want one of these someday XD

How cute! Are they really called Pac-Man frogs?

Fitting name. :D

Thank you all! Yes, the common name is Pacman Frog, there are few subspecies the species name is Ceratophrys, our boy (for now I'm going with a boy since it's too young to know the gender) is Ceratophrys cranwelli. And I waited a long time to name one of our pets "Chomper", it seemed perfect for this frog.

Deborah, yes, I know, he'll have a nice naturalistic tub after the acclimation time ends, but since he's new I want to make sure he eats and poops fine. And his breeder was keeping all his babies on paper towels so I did not wanted to stress the poor frog with totally new substrate that he doesn't know. After he'll eat few time and we make sure he's good we will make his home nicely and safely for him :)

What does he eat?
