or close in size as a PIXIE? Is that a silly question? lol

I have not found that any of them get as large as pixies, but in my experience the adult female Ornates have been the largest of my horned frogs. People say Aurita get huge, but I have not seen evidence of that as of yet and I have been working with horned frogs for over fifteen years.

Agree with Justin remarks. Never seen a Pacman close to male African Bullfrog in size. If you desire a large Pacman, recommend getting a known female Ornate (the high reds or solid green are awesome). If starting with a juvenile and it turns to be a male; you can either keep or try and trade for a female. Aurita's are lot more expensive and you could still end up with a smaller male. Good luck

Remember to take care of the enclosure and it will take care of your frog!
Orwells (ornata x cranwelli) can occasionally reach the 8" mark. However, I've only seen them available only twice over the years, it is really not economical for a breeder to produce them, as there is a large amount of egg infertility and tadpole die-off.
I have two aurita and so far they are not huge, but most Ceratophrys get large with age. My largest is a female C. cranwelli at 5.25" SVL and about 5" wide when well hydrated. None of my Onates are huge. My female is just over 4", but she isn't very old and both my males are not exceptionally large either with Zephyr just under 4" and Sanguine barely over 3".
Any pics?
