The End of the Buying Season?

[MeTree]

Hey guys. I was just wondering, this being my first year into Pacman Frogs, if this is pretty much the end of availability for Pacman Frogs until spring. I realize that it is diffecult to breed Pacman Frogs in many areas out of breeding season (the spring). I know it took a little bit more than a month for my LPS to order Malcolm for me, she said it was seasonal and I got him in the spring. I have already seen major sellers sell off most of their stock. I know there are still quite afew C.cranwelli available, but I am looking for a C.ornata which certainly seem hardy to find this time of year, not that I can buy right now anyway.

I was just wondering because right now I am not in the finacial position to order a Pacman Frog off internet. I will have to wait and watch some of the last of the Pacman Frogs to go out of stock. I am just wondering if I will need to wait until spring. I just need to make plans if this is something that is going to start up again before next spring.

I don't know. Has anyone heard anything or know how that generally works? Thanks guys!

MeTree,

I'm not sure if its the end of the availibility of Pacmans yet, but I have noticed one of my pet stores near me sold all of their reptiles out. They put on sail pretty cheap. I purchased Grif at the end of Febuary/ start of March. I got him at Petsmart. Maybe they are a sesonal pet since winter delivery of a cold blooded animal may be to risky. I'm sure someone on here will know for sure.

They are available throughout the year in my experience.

They are available throughout the year in my experience.

Definately the case, available all year round.

Well I hope they are year round, I recently went to a pet store to get my first pac man frog to add to my family of 12 other frogs. And they were out. I was getting worried!

As soon as the heat is gone u will see them alot more. Places tend to stay away from frog ordering because its to hot and heat and frogs dont mix.

[superphil92]

But when its to cold... cold and frogs do not mix.

I am wondering if it partially depends on the area. I don't know. I contacted Josh (josh's frogs) and he said that they probably wouldn't be getting in any more Pacman Frogs until next winter. He only has about 13 right now. I imagine that it wouldn't be diffecult to find a Cranwell's at any point of the year, but it seems frogs like C.ornata, C.cornuta, C.'hybrid' (Fantasy) are more diffecult to find throughout the year.

I don't know. Thanks for all the imput guys!
