    Default Is my petsmart selling an ornate pac man frog?

    I checked its scientific name and is said Ceratophyrs Ornata. Is it just a mistake?

    I wouldn't trust their label. Take a picture if you can and post it here so we can tell you. I would say it's probably Ceratophrys cranwelli, but it could be a C. ornata.

    My local Petco has a green cranwelli labeled as an ornate and it's up for $25

    I have seen it both ways at my nearest Petsmart. They label it "C.ornata", but most of the time it is a cranwelli. Once I saw an Ornate, however. It partially depends on the store.

    I have yet to see any ornate at petsmart or petco.

    The Petsmart that I purchased Grif from had him labled as an albino when clearly anyone even someone who doesn't know anything at all about Pacman frogs could see he was not. He is a C. Cranwelli.
