    Question average price for pyxies where you live?

    The title pretty much says it all but... Yeah...

    When I bought mine it was 900 sek wich is about 126 usd, but the price has gone up really much since last year because now it's as much as 280 usd!! I don't know how much they cost in the states but I thought it was really overpriced :O

    Are they babies, juveniles, subadults, or adults?

    Babies here can be $25 to $60 and the cost increases as they get older and larger. Full grown males and females might go for $250 to $300. This also depends on who is selling the frog.

    I could see them being maybe $80 or close to $100. Reason is because the food and housing cost for them. If its a privately owned pet shop they kind of set their own prices.

    I live in CT and I paid $29.99 for my pixie. It's a baby one so no guarantee on sex or size. Picked him up at Petco last month.

    here in England they are around £45 at the moment. Last year they were around £100. Prices of things tend to change according to whether they are the 'in' thing to have. I wanted one, but wasn't prepared to pay £100 or more so I waited and found a baby one for sale for £25 from a woman who had a frog for sale and advertised as an ornate horned frog. My Winston was then only 3 inches fro snout to vent. That was 9 months ago and now he is 5 inches.

    Just saw this thread, and realizing I got a much better deal than I thought! Strax is easily 5-6", and I got him for just $24! He was on sale, but was only discounted by about $8 or so.

    Wow, that's crazy! So glad they don't cost that much here, I'd never have been able to afford Strax if they did!
