    Default new to pixie but not frogs

    Hi, I recently bought a pixie. I so hope its a guy lol he's just a little thing. I'm new to a pixie frog but have had frogs my entire life.was my first pet as a kid I've always had a kinship for frogs. I've had my first pacman for over a yr he's doing good. So I found a pixie at Petco and just had to have him. How different are pixies and pacman?

    Sorry I have no pics using my phone and don't know how to upload pics but I will asap

    Climate is very similar, but Pyxi Frogs seem to like it a bit warmer. They need alot of space and a large water feature. Coconut Fiber substrate Ect.

    Have you read the Care Sheet? http://www.frogforum.net/content/afr...-breeding-118/

    It's funny you say you have a kinship to frogs....lol....I do as well. maybe a little too strong of one. I was told by a coworker after showing her a picture of an adult Cornuta that I looked like the frog.....

    Care is similar. Grif's got you covered. Read the care sheet, and I would recommend P. Vasjoli's book 'The Giant African Bullfrog: Life history and captive husbandry. Available on amazon (e-book)

    Thanks
