My 8 year old has wanted a budgett's frog so bad. I am not wanting one right now, but I sure hope they don't disappear from the trade before she's ready to get one.

I don't have any questions,I keep Surinam toads,another large aquatic frog.i was just wondering how different people keep them.probably most in bare bottom tanks maybe? I was hoping for a general cross section,but I don't think that's going to happen.yes I would like to get a Budgetts frog,and wanted one for a while,just can't find one.anybody ever do business with that new York city place "big apple herps"? He's says he gets captive bred ones...

I have purchased supplies from them before but never a live animal. Had no issues with my supply order though.

Hey ted, Its a shame they are slipping away from the hobbyists hands from what ive read they are commonly kept in aquatic tanks but can be kept in semiaquatic terrariums, ive even heard of terrariums with a large water bowl, but im sure they would fare better in a semiaquatic tank, but experience speaks for itself on the forum.

They breed 3 kinds of these frogs,the l. Laevis,l. Iianensis ,and the cross breed krueger frog. I wrote to them and they won't sell retail,,but they won't tell me were to get one either.they said a huge batch will the market in 6 weeks,that was at least 6 weeks ago,and I'm wondering what market?
