    Re: Pacman frogs advice please

    I don't personally know much about pac man frogs but I saw that your post hadn't been answered yet. Here is a simple basic care sheet that may answer some of your questions as far as housing goes. http://izzysworldofherps.info/care-sheets/pac-man-frog/

    for whether or not they can be handled I do know that is best to keep handling to a minimum with all amphibians as their porous skin is very sensitive

    Yeah I don't really ever hold my Tiger Salamander. And if I do I get my hands really cold and cover them in his soil.

    I just got one for my son and it seems to be a very easy animal to care for. We are housing the Pac Man Frog in a 18x18x18 Exo Terra Terrarium with eco balls on the bottom, coconut husk as the main substrate and zoo med moss broken up over the coconut husk. All kept very damp with a small spray bottle misting daily.

    Here is a pic of him last night enjoying his new pad.

    Pac mans are really not meant to be handled. The toxins on our hands are more harmful to them than they are to us. They are eating machines, and watch your fingers while feeding. Haha. I recommend getting tongs to feed them. Feed them as much as they'll take in a 10 min period.

    Babys: Crickets, earth worms

    I wouldn't feed them to many pinkies, once a week at best.
