    Question Pacman breeding by size or age?

    Hi, I bought 10 pacman frogs a few months ago, and since then they have grown at an amazing rate, now I'm wondering how I determine when my frogs will be ready to breed?

    Is it by size like some snakes, or more about age like turtles?

    Should I start the breeding cycle when they reach adult size, or should I wait for the first cycling until after they reach, let's say a year or something?

    TY for your help.

    Andre

    Age. Males must be 9 months to a year and females 18 months to two years. This varies depending on species.

    I was told the Albinos are all Cranwelli (I think) and the others are Ornata.

    Yes, there are no albino ornata as of now. Ornata are extremely difficult to breed. Most fail even as experienced breeders. Both of these sepecies take the same amount of time to mature.

    It is, but the use of hormone injection is how it was most likely done.
