Pacman, who's got em?

Tubs work great for horned frogs, also. I have mine in a tub that's roughly the size of 2 shoebox tubs. It retains humidity like a dream (something that's tough in tanks.) I like to keep my frog's humidity pretty high, otherwise she tends to dry out and develop a hard clear outer skin (they do this while "brumating" in the dry season in Argentina, their homeland.) A rock on the lid and some airholes melted into the sides, and you're good to go. I fill it about 2/3 full with substrate; these frogs LIVE to dig.

Just came in to check on my pacman and he was dead. 5-6 years old, not too bad of a life span

My local reptile shop just got some in going to get one on Saturday cant wait:banana:

I got one today at the reptile show. they called him a fantasy frog about the size of a half dollar. Got em in a 5.5 with a about 2 inches of dirt for him to burrow in. and a uth. Thing is sweet looking and is already eating crickets. Cant wait for him him to be a big guy.

just got my fantasy from LLL Reptile today...
now i have a quick question he is still little and only eating med. crickets, i feed him two crickets today...how many should he eat in one feeding?
thanks for the help

just took the one pic as we did not want to stress the wee fella , cant wait till I can get a few 'smiler' shots front on with him .:D

Hey Peeps!

Some gorgeous frog's you all have there!

I've kept Ceratophrys Cranwelli's, Cornuta's & Ornata's over the years & I love 'em all!!!!
-Really hardy & interesting amphibs!

But, I have to say.....My favourite of the "Chubby frogs" is what I'm currently keeping & that's the Budgett's Frog (Lepidobatrachus laevis)

These little beasties are AWESOME!!!!!

Total eating machines & if you think the "Pacman's" have an attitude....You should see these things when they have the *rse!!!

They actually attack!!! As well as growl & hiss at you! :O

They're not as 'attractive' colour-wise as the 'pacman's'...But they more than make up for that in cuteness!!! :D

I brought mine as a 'froglet' about 2 years ago & he was the size of a 50p (I think that's about the size of a quarter) and he now fills my hand! :D

They're hard to come by over here & have been on the look out for a female of breeding size...But no luck as yet!

My Photobucket account is not letting me upload an old piccie of him at the mo...Ggggrrrrr...But when it's working I'll post one!

In the mean-time here's a pic & video I've just found via google showing their "Strike pose"....:O

Give the little fella's a try.....You won't regret it!!!!! :gj:

Ah-ha...Got it working!

RIght, as promised...Here's an old piccie of my little fella "phlem" (named for obvious squishy, gooey reasons)...Will sort out a new pic soon! :D

i have had mine for about two weeks and she is so cool
i have found that she loves Wax Worms and feeder fish..

What's the typical lifespan on these guys...8-10 years?
