    They are calling them "Ultimates." I believe Yusuke only imported about a dozen of these. And they are probably all sold off.

    I haven't heard good things about these. Personally I am not a fan of hybrids. Especially with an Aurita. They are such a rare frog that it seems like a waste. And for the price that the Ultimates are going for, you might as well buy a pure bred Aurita. Just my opinion...

    I do enjoy hybrids that surpass the pure species in terms of looks or other traits. Having said that; unless this frog does something magical as it transforms into an adult; prefer pure Aurita too .
    Remember to take care of the enclosure and it will take care of your frog !​

    Most of the Horned frog Hybrids are a waste. They are either sterile, not cost effective to produce, or unstable physically. Prime example is the Green Apple(C. cranwelli x C. joazeirensis). They almost never survive to adulthood.
