Misting?

[Sunshine]

Not sure. Any time I have gone to a Petsmart they would only have one pacman, and they were usually Cranwellis. I don't think I have ever seen an Ornate but I remember someone on here a while back found one there.

If I don't see anything there that I like, I will just buy one off the internet.

Sounds good. The only reputable breeders that I know of are IvoryReptiles and Mike's Phat Frogs, and Josh's Frogs also sells Pacs I believe.

Hi, the 8 kinds of pacman Sunshine posted is all there is from what I believe and the first three like she said are the most common. If it is your first one would steer clear of the C.cornuta because again she is right that these can be abit challenging, very picky eaters from what I hear. The one left out is the fantasy which is a morph of the Cranwelli x Cornuta. If you have patients I would look around the internet or go to an expo before getting one from a petsmart. They are not all the same but a lot of these big chain stores don't take care of these animals properly and you get them home to find out a couple weeks later that they are sick with something. Again I know some are better then others, I haven't heard all terrible stories from people purchasing them from there. Even if you a have little mom and pop store in town or close by I would check there to. And ya most the time I go in there they are always cranwelli. And so you don't get tricked if you really have your mind set on a Ornata check for false eye spots on the back of each eye, there is a very good picture of this in a recent thread by a guy named Grabibus.

Do you think that this would be a reputable breeder? http://undergroundreptiles.com/shop/...y-pacman-frog/

I'm not sure. I have never heard of them before. I would strongly recommend against a fantasy frog if you are a beginner though. They are the cross breeding of a cornuta and a Cranwelli and tend to be difficult to care for like the Cornuta. It seems that they also tend to have a lot of health problems. I am going to check out that site and see what I can find as far as customer reviews etc.

Thank you, I also like ornates, and they sell them for the same price. Are ornates simple to take care of?

[Sunshine]

Ornates are much easier to take care of and they are pretty Great choice as a beginner Pac. If you do decide you want an Ornate make sure it has the false eye spots on the back of its eyes. That is how you tell it is an Ornate.
