New ornate horned

[Duriel]

So my parents came to visit me last weekend and brought my old tanks... so naturally all I saw was "something needs to be in here". Flash forward to today at petco picking up some crickets (my dubia are breeding slow) and I see they have this little guy. He had his own little home, so either they only got one or the others got adopted out. I just had to snatch him up after all the dead frogs/lizards I've seen in their cages...

That looks more like a Cranwelli than an Ornata.

I had the same thing in mind.
Duriel you might want to check to see if there are "false eyes," or spots posterior to the frog's eyes.

Petco almost always sells cranwellis as ornatas Cute little guy.

That is usually true, although to my surprise the local Petco near where I live was selling a correctly labeled Ornate horned frog! I asked the staff to take it out and it was surely an Ornate, lol! What a surprise!

It's sad that I see this and think 'they deserve a medal'...
Maybe it's a trend. I saw an adult male cranwelli ('ornata') in my usual Petco and, despite being labelled incorrectly he seemed healthy and only had a tiny bit of moss in his enclosure. Then the lady working there actually QUIZZED me on all the correct things before she'd sell me my new goldfish.

Upon further inspection, yes, Cranwells. He still seems gunshy about me and will not eat, so I gave up on using crickets and put about 10 small dubia in a small slick tin and the next day they were gone.
