[gray frog in manitoba]

Hi Kurt, how exciting. I have never seen anything like this before ~ are these common to have as pets? I also have the same questions as Ebony - what is on its menu and how fast does it move?

[Kurt]

They are not common in the pet trade. Last time I saw one for sale, it was $200. I guess we here in the United States (and Europe, I am guessing) have it good as far as what we can keep. But it does vary from state to state. Massachusetts doesn't allow the keeping of eastern spadefoot toads, Scaphiopus holbrookii, but other than that we can keep any frog as long as its not federally protected. I am guessing, as I am not 100% sure, but the federal list includes Houston toads, mountain yellow-legged frogs, and pine barrens treefrogs. The list is probably bigger than that.
