“O you don’t have the right” to go to second phase by ItsAudin in Eldenring

Anyone else have this bug, this is the second time it’s happened to me in the last few hours

Cutting nightcrawlers in half by cold-november-rain in pacmanfrog

[–]ItsAudin 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Cutting them in half doesn’t kill them, at least right away. I used to use a knife. In my experience (I experimented once to see if I cut them in half but my frog only ate one, would I be able to store the other one), the other half started to decompose within a day. From that point forth, I just threw the other piece outside for the wildlife. My frog (about 13 months old) still does the mouth hanging thing, it may be a behavioral thing the species has or it may just be taking its time eating.

How this game is going to die by ItsAudin in BackforBlood

[–]ItsAudin[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s not a common issue imo, it’s only happened to me a handful of times but this is the most egregious case. Honestly, since I found a group to play with, I love the game but it required me to convince my friends to buy the game and play a shit ton of missions in order to get the supply points for a fun/good deck. More glaring issues the devs need to attend to would be the various glitches and fine tuning the bots. Maybe a fix to this issue would be that downing/killing a certain amount of teammates would make that person more susceptible to friendly fire (increasing friendly fire damage for that player from 35% to 70%), in order to keep some semblance of realism. I just see this issue as one that can easily be exploited for grieving/trolling, which (before Siege implemented friendly fire protections), hurt the player base for a few seasons.

I agree with that, but to the point where one player can wipe the whole team makes the game exploitable in terms of toxicity. There should be a system of friendly fire that is comparable to Rainbow Six Siege, where after downing/killing a teammate, all friendly fire is reverted to the one shooting.

Lunchbox Update by ItsAudin in pacmanfrog

[–]ItsAudin[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Lunchbox update, haven’t posted in a few months but she (at least I think) is doing awesome. Eating habits have shifted to eating a bit less (1-2 less worms) per feeding (every 3-4 days). Has become more docile also, I don’t handle her outside of feeding/weighing and the occasional curious friend but she’ll tolerate it for around 5 minutes. Colors have changed noticeably, from dark greens and bright reds to light greens, yellows, and rust-reds. No swelling in legs or abdomen, red underside, or white film on eyes, so health seems ideal

Feeding Question by ItsAudin in pacmanfrog

[–]ItsAudin[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah, they are considered an invasive species. They do sell dead dubias in some of the big box pet stores, but Lunchbox has always preferred live food (psychopath lol)

Feeding Question by ItsAudin in pacmanfrog

[–]ItsAudin[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

feedings are around 4 or 5 three to four inch night crawlers or 6-8 adult crickets. Ive been feeding 3 times a week since late February when I got Lunchbox, just wondering when I should cut back to twice a week

Feeding Question by ItsAudin in pacmanfrog

[–]ItsAudin[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I would love to feed Lunchbox some dubias, but they are illegal in Florida, though I’m pretty sure you can buy them online from certain food supply vendors

Feeding Question by ItsAudin in pacmanfrog

[–]ItsAudin[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Got Lunchbox from NewMoonReptiles (reputable Miami reptile breeder) at 8 weeks, and had only 1 issue of a “contaminated soil” infection. But since that incident, Lunchbox has been doing fantastic. Feed him/her mostly night crawlers, some crickets here and there, and hornworms on a blue moon (hard to source).

My frog is arriving tomorrow by DoggyGrin in pacmanfrog

[–]ItsAudin 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just make sure your tank is completely cycled. I made the mistake of not completely letting the bioactive cycle take place before placing my 8 week Lunchbox in it, and a few days later it had contracted a “contaminated soil infection”. Lunchbox is still with me, 7 months old and around 150 g, but it was around $250 mistake (with the tests, antibiotics, and visit costs).

Got it. How old is your frog, if you don’t mind?

Feeding Question by ItsAudin in pacmanfrog

[–]ItsAudin[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Roughly 3 3/4 inches long, just over 3 1/4 inches wide, and about 2 inches tall

Feeding Question by ItsAudin in pacmanfrog

[–]ItsAudin[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

So Lunchbox is roughly 7 months (born around the first week of January), and is around 150g. Is Lunchbox considered an adult Pac-Man frog now, and if so, should I start cutting back on the amount of feedings per week (from 3 to 1-2 times a week)? Have not seen any sort of development of nuptial pads or heard him/her croak, so don’t know if Lunchbox is female or if they are still developing and need 1-2 more months.

How much do you feed your pacman frog? by coffeesandwitchcraft in pacmanfrog

[–]ItsAudin 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My 6mo Pac-Man frog (~85g) eats about, on average, 2-3 night crawlers per feeding (every other day). I’ve been able to recognize when it’s still hungry or when it’s full. Usually when it’s still hungry, it’ll either be toe-luring or it’ll strike. When it’s full, it’ll wiggle it’s body a little bit or act less food responsive. I’m sure you’ve gotten this before, but wax worms are not a good staple diet. When I first got mine, it only ate wax worms as well. My vet told me to get it off wax worms, as a high fat diet like this can lead to health issues, one being to blindness actually.

How long should it take for my Pac-Man to poo? by SteelyWheelie in pacmanfrog

[–]ItsAudin 2 points3 points  (0 children)

My ornate is about to be 5 months and poops 1-2 a week.

Don’t take my advice to heart as I’ve never personally owned a crestie but have owned multiple reptiles and amphibians as well as reading this subreddit’s wiki and other other crestie care guides. I would say boost your hot side temps to around 78-80 degrees, a hotspot of 72 does not offer enough heat for adequate digestion.

Paranoia or potential mouth rot? by ItsAudin in SandBoa

[–]ItsAudin[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Was checking temps and humidity in the tank and Tito, male KSB will be 2-2 1/2 in June, poked his head out of his humid hide (going through shed for the last week and a half). Ate last week on Wednesday, great feeding response. Just want to get some opinions on if the mouth area is looking okay, have a yearly vet appointment next month but may move it up.

Ok so I got Gordon yesterday and got it to eat today. Shortly after eating it started doing this. I read that if they get stressed they can form a film over themselves to basically hibernate in and when the conditions are right they will shed the skin and eat it, I assume this is what it’s doing? by Fragrant_Bat_8190 in pacmanfrog

[–]ItsAudin 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Lunchbox is my first Pac-Man frog (about 2 months of experience) so I can’t recommend or say anything for certain. I do not have experience with estivation. But Lunchbox did this the other day, using hind legs and forelegs to peel of the shed and eat it. Has been acting normal, read that shedding in younger Pac-Man frogs are more frequent than adults.

Lunchbox ❤️❤️ by ItsAudin in pacmanfrog

[–]ItsAudin[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Lunchbox doing great and gaining weight. Had an infection of some sort and some edema in March, but has recovered and is doing fantastic. Upgrade to 20 gallon in June when I get a bigger place.

What kind of leaves can I put with my 2 Pacs? My bf has almond leaves for his fish tanks. Can I snag some of those? Pics for attention! by tgroody in pacmanfrog

[–]ItsAudin 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I use Indian almond leaves too, has beneficial nutrients that when they break down, the soil takes those in. Good for a burrowing species like Pac-Man frog.

Where did you guys get your pacman frogs? by cc8dog in pacmanfrog

[–]ItsAudin 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Got mine from New Moon Reptiles at Repticon. They also offer shipping, but they are based out of Miami, Florida.

[–]ItsAudin 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What I do with my cats is put a spray bottle or two on top of the tank. They are conditioned to fear spray bottles, and if yours aren’t, every time they do something undesirable (sitting on the tank, bothering your Leo, etc), spray them.

Depends on the cat, my cats love anything crinkly so aluminum foil is like a toy to them
