Tuesday, tell us about your amphibians. How you came to keep them, mistakes/learning curves, species kept, breedings, how you found Frog Forum etc....we heard enough about you on Monday, let us hear about them frogs!

Here we go!

In 2008, I bought a small group of pacman frogs for my younger brother. He was always getting introuble and I figured he needed something to keep him busy. That ended up not taking care of the "Keeping him busy" problem so, took got the frogs back. Between 2008-2010 I bought a few frogs and slowly added to the group. I stumbled upon the Samurai blue pacman frogs in winter of 2010. I called up Yusuke and took out a loan to buy my 1st blue female. After she arrived I bought 7 adults from Exotic Pets in Las Vegas. In the spring of 2011 I produced my first batch of pacman frogs. At the time there was hardly any info about breeding pacman frogs. I took a kiddy pool from walmart and rigged up a rain chamber. Out of all my rain chambers i think the frogs liked that one the most.

I have kept many species of Amphibians and would have to say that pacman frogs and spanish ribbed newts are my favorite. The newts are very unique. They will take food right from your hand. My daughters love them.

Mistakes
Sold frogs that I should have kept! lol
Mixed imported animals with cbb
and many more

Breedings for the future!

I really would like to breed mutants with Cornuta. It would be neat to see a Fantasy pacman frog that changes color as it grows.
