Anybody actually get some animals from them??

and Ebony, I thought the same thing when I saw that peacock tree frog, but upon image searching them I've yet to come up with another specimen so perfect. beautifal though.

Yeah, there is some cools tuff over there. I liked the marbled reed frog and the Vietnamese spotted gliding frog. By the way, that peacock treefrog is a juvenile. As they mature they change color. See my photo albums to see an adult. Its labeled "big-eyed treefrog".

[Ebony]

Gee Kurt, I see what you mean. Apart from the beautiful big eyes you wouldn't think it was the same frog.

[Kurt]

Well, it unfortunately is. I got a pair of these peacock treefrogs at a show once and about six or less monthslater they looked like the picture in my album. If they kept the juvenile colouring they would be one one of my favorite frogs.

[Ebony]

You would think that the seller might have thought that was an important piece of information to point out to you when purchasing this frog. I still think its a gorgeous frog with those beautiful eyes though Kurt.

Why would a vendor tell you it will turn "ugly" as it matures? To do so may discourage any sales of the frog.

I have browsed his site in the past, but it looks to me like he sells far too many obviously wild caught animals for my taste.

[Ebony]

Why would a vendor tell you it will turn "ugly" as it matures? To do so may discourage any sales of the frog.

To not do so would discourage any further sales. Surely they want future sales and a good rep. But I wouldn't say the frog is ugly. It pays to read up on a frog before a purchase then.
