    Default C. Cranwelli or C. Ornata?

    I just purchased this guy from petsmart today, and I was wondering what species it might be? It's my first Pacman frog. She's bright lime green with black blotches. The contrast is quite striking! My camera is a little outdated, unfortunately, but I think I got a decent picture.

    Side note: Do they usually need a few days to settle down before they'll eat? I tried feeding her a small earthworm today and she ignored it. Other than that, she seems to have found a little spot to burrow and had settled in pretty comfortably.

    Looks like a cranwelli as horns are pointy. petsmart should really be providing the information on what species it is

    Depends on the frog, some will feed soon as you get it home and others may go off food for days. Just make sure to keep temps warm for feeding and make sure it has a 12 hour photoperiod then it should feed in no time.

    Also looks Cranwelli to me. A ornate will have a little black/red false eye spot on the back of each eye, its a little dot. And half the time petsmart has them labeled wrong, its funny the petsmart here were I live the girl in the reptile department asks me for help with her pacman frog. Shouldn't I be asking the questions. L.O.L If you haven't covered any of the sides yet, if you cover three sides it will help him settle in a little faster.
