Reptile & Amphibian Forums

I'm interested in getting one of those pacman frogs. Can someone recommend somewhere I can get them? I looked in the classifieds but didn't come across many. I'm looking for a baby and preferably a albino. Thanks in advance.

Do you have a Petsmart where you are, dasnakeguy? If you haven't looked there yet, you may want to. I don't know if it is with all Petsmarts but my local Petsmart is starting to get more and more (even though they still don't have all that much) reptiles and amphibians. Well, just recently they got a bunch of Pacman Frogs in! The last-last time I was there they only had one albino left (no regular ones), but I just went yesterday and they had a bunch more in stock! So you may want to check them out.

Petsmart or Petco are the last two places you want to go. The frogs are notorious for being ill kept and often do not live long. Buy from a specialty herp store or even someone on the net. Andy

I second that one! Not to mention they are completely over priced most of the time. Stay away from places like petsmart and petco, they have teenagers that work there and not to be mean but they usually know jack crap.

I bought mine from chicago reptile house in chicago IL. I do not know their website though. I paid 25 for mine.

Here is a website that sells them... http://www.xtremereptiles.com/

Yeah, I usually don't like to support pet stores that don't take proper care of their animals (esp. Petswharehouse)...But all the animals at my local Petsmart seem to be happy and healthy. They seem to take really good care of them. Except...for the Pacman frogs. They're still babies but they have them in these little tiny containers with no heat and no access to water. I'm assuming they get misted though as I don't see how they could survive without water. The prices are really reasonable, though. Only $14.99 for a regular Pacman and $24.99 for an Albino Pacman.

But the problem with supporting one means you are supporting ALL of them. That is the problem. Andy
