    By the way they are both Ornates. I confirm false eye spots on both of them. You just got away with highway robbery. Good thing for you Petsmart must not know how much they really go for.

    How much do they normally go for and why are they more than other kinds? There is an ornate at the Petsmart by me and it is $15.

    The ones that petsmart usually carry are cranwellis not ornates. The sign does say ornates but 9 times out of 10 they are cranwellis

    Ornates are a rarer breed and are not as readily available as Cranwells. They usually cost around $30. Petsmart is notious for misslabeling pacmans.

    Very cute! Yeah, one time I went to my Petsmart and they had a frog labled "Ornate Pacman Frog" and the species listed was Ceratophrys cranwelli. Wow. Mine sells ornates and cranwell's about 50/50. Ornates are so cute as babies! XD

    Congratulations on your Ornates! Will check local Petsmart's just in case some made it here.
    Remember to take care of the enclosure and it will take care of your frog !​
