    Default Dwarf pyxie pictures

    With all the confusions about what is what I decided to post some pictures of dwarf pyxies I took at local shop here a few weeks back. The shop was told by supplier that these were giants but as you can tell they're not.



    Note these pictures are of 3-4 different frogs and all were at around 4-5".

















    Feel free to add any dwarf pyxie pictures you might have.

    Wow, these guys are really neat looking. Thanks for sharing the pictures. How much did these frogs retail for? I can definitely see the difference between the photos and my three Giants....but I still want one of the ones in the photo!!

    They wanted $50 each at this shop but pretty sure you can find them for cheaper. I would have no problem paying that much for giant pyxies of that size just not for dwarves.

    I have never seen these guys at my local petshop, but I am definitely going to be keeping my eye out, now. $50 does seem a little high, but with how much money I spend on my frogs, what's another $50??

    I like these frogs but it's very dishonest for all the suppliers to be labeling them as Giants. They know people prefer Giants and they have no problem lying to us.

    This isn't the first time I've seen these frogs being sold as "giants". I found this link on LLLreptile suply, these dwarfs are called tanzanian pixie frogs.
