Helmeted Water Toad, Chilean Helmeted Bull Frog or Wide Mouth Toad (Calyptocephalella gayi, syn. Caudiverba caudiverba)

[Eridu Serpent]

Yes

I can get one delivered for $65...I already have toads and I am starting to keep frogs now.

Are they meaner than African Bufrogs?

I can not find a lot of info on the internet about keeping them, looked on a few forums but no one seems to have them.

As far as I know there isn't a lot of info out there on them and they don't pop up in the pet trade very often. As I've read their diet is pretty similar to the diets or PyxiFrogs, Horned Frogs,and Budgetts. Their diet consists mainly of other frogs.

I'll see if I can find any info on keeping them, but I have a feeling that I won't find a lot of captive care sheets.

Whether they're meaner or not I'm unsure. I'ver never even seen one of these and from what a fellow member I speak to says they're pretty aggressive, but that's to be expected with any very large predatory species. I would assume that there could even be docile individuals among them like with most other frog species. You just have to wait to see how yours turn out.
