Most likely the frog that was offered was Conraua alleni.

Oh, thats right it was a Conraua alleni my mistake. I just saw Goliath frog, I diden't reed the other name. It was a good site though. I found a good video on youtube about a man who has some that he sell's to zoo's YouTube - 8 pound Giant Frogs[/URL]
That video is at least a few years old. Conraua goliath is listed by the IUCN as an endangered species.

I have seen Conraua goliath in the flesh, it was, however, a preserved specimen on display at the Havard University Museum of Natural History. It's a very big frog.
Yeah I think it was made in 1993, but still interesting. They are great frogs. I hope they come off the endangered species list soon (meaning they are not endangered any more). I find youtube good for different
videos on frogs and toads. I have spent ages looking though them.
You will do well to find Rococo Toads in the UK! I've heard of them but never actually seen any for sale.
If this is your first attempt at frog/toad keeping you may want to consider something like Bufo Melanostictus!
Your profile doesn't say where abouts in the UK you are but have a look at http://www.britnett-carver2.co.uk/c2...bsinstock.html for an idea of what's available toad wise!

Thanks for the site. It gave me a good idea. I am in London. I haven't see any Rococo toads for sale either. but cane toads are nice as well. I will have a look at Bufo Melanostictus, at the moment I don't have any toads yet but I like to find out as much as possible before I get one.
