Your frog looks like a "Lipstick" Pacman. The second two photo's appears to be different frogs to me .

Hi CHiNO, Welcome to the Forum!

I added the link where you got these photos from. Please be sure to cite any pictures that are not yours.

In these pictures, the frog on the left is a "lipstick pacman." It is a Cranwelli morph that was first produced by The Frog Ranch. The Frog Ranch | Lipstick Horned Frog. There are very few photos of them. I have noticed that several different retailers advertising this morph all use the same photo. I have never seen a confirmed photo of one as an adult so I can't really tell you how they look. Horned frogs can change quite drastically as they mature so you never know exactly what they will look like as adults.

The photo on the right is of a "Green Apple." They are a cross between a Cranwelli and a Joazierensis. I have seen them mislabeled as reduced patterned Cranwellis. But they are not a stable hybrid. Very few of them reach adulthood, so there aren't many pictures of them.

Some of them will darken as they age. Some will have their pattern fade more or become more pronounced. I would venture that around 3-4 months you will have a better idea of what its colors will be. By 8 months it should have its adult colors.

thanks for the welcome and advice! i will definitely update everyone on the color of my frog. i really do hope that the "lipstick" part fades...
