    Default Mexican Leaf Frog

    Hi. I was wondering how to keep these guys.
    1. How big of a tank do you need?
    2. What plants could you put in a vivarium for these guys?
    3. What is their diet?
    4. Should they be kept like Waxy Monkey Tree frogs?
    5. Is anyone selling them right now?
    Thanks

    Sorry about all the questions

    They are no longer in the US hobby. Sandfire Dragon Ranch has a few left but they are old and not breeding.

    This is what Mike Ready had to say about them, forwarded to me by Jesse Kooiman:

    A.dacnicolor -- wish I had some good news. Sandfire was breeding them years ago, but the primary production was coming from our partner in Mexico. Several years back he was hit with a number of set-backs, including a major hurricane and army ants taking out his cricket facility. He has yet to be able to get the pachys back on line and our group dwindled down to old unproductive animals. So, I am sure it will happen again at some point but I can't say when. It's too bad, and honestly disappointing, that with the large number that were sold, no one else bred them and there are none to be found. Will let you know if any progress.
