[DorkiTimmy]

Hey guys I been Doing My research On pacman frog and breeding and i was wondering if anyone has any other tip all i learned so far is some stuff about not misting your frog for 3weeks in its enclosure what about feeding no feeding for 3 weeks? then after you may put the 2 frogs together in a shallow water tank and wait how long? keep it in there how long? And i was wondering anyone else around Orange County Or Garden Grove Ca 92843 that owns a pacman frog and was to be frog buddy Heres a picture of mine im not sure if its just a normal green pacman frog or Is it an Ornate pacman frog. Heres a picture of him or her

Its far more complicated than that, especially the aestivation period or "cycling." You also have to consider light cycles, temperature cycles, cooling and warming cycles, feeding cycles, sexing the frogs, identifying readiness to breed in females, constructing a proper rain chamber. Then you have water chemistry, feeding tadpoles, housing hundreds and hundreds of frogs, preventing cannibalism, and then finally selling the actual frogs.

You have an Ornate Horned Frog there, which are more difficult to breed.

My research on horned frogs leads me down the road of not for me to breed. You can find good books, caresheets, and great info on this website if you take the time required. Actually a google search of "horned frog care" found me this website via a link in a thread of a caresheet with detailed info on breeding horned frogs. I think its something like get a healthy boy and a girl of sexual maturity, stimulate the cool dry season and let them follow their instincts to bruminate for two months minimum, simulate the rainy season, after they wake up put em in an appropriate mostly aquatic environment and let them be frogs, then if all goes well you get to take care of a lot of tadpoles!

Hey what kinda frogs do you guys have you should post your pictures here and if you live in garden grove you should let me know haha

It is going to take a lot of research and preparation to breed... I would recommend focusing on general husbandry and keep them for at least a year before you attempt breeding.

Yea I Had Mine for 4-6months already i was just mentally preparing if i should breed in the future or not and the difficulty time money dedication for it so yea. Im just sure i can provide the food for the new hatchlings and the space needed for them the only problem is how to breed and not let them eat each other is what im most afraid of. how hard for an albino and a ornate breed together
