is grounded walnut shells a good subtrate for my pacman frog.He is burrowed in the subtrate as we speak,it seemed like a loose subtrate,and i know how much they like to burrow so i got some.

i will have pics up soon.also is calcium dusted prey,good for this frog species,or is it not really needed?
 
good old top soil works good too.

on my frogs when ever i feed i always dust with a calicium/dc powder. i do this with all insects fed.
 
i would get him out of that NOW.
A pacman WILL get impacted off of it. Its probibly too sharp anyway.
Just use wet paper towels until you can get new substrate.
 
Good substrates: moist paper towels, coconut fiber,peat or just a thin layer of water. Wallnut is one of the worst substrates:grinno:
 
L_C did you research this animal first before purchasing it and this horrid substrate? Please use care sheets over what the Petco employees tell you. A simple search should of told you that walnut shells is the WORSE substrate you could ever use.

I think the only animals that possibly be ok whit wallnut would be something like stick insects and praying mantis:confused:

I would keep L_C on walnut shells.

And if you are going to use soil, do NOT use potting soil with the white balls in it AGAIN.
